    iavf: Use irq_update_affinity_hint() · 0f9744f4
    Nitesh Narayan Lal authored
    The driver uses irq_set_affinity_hint() for two purposes:
    
    - To set the affinity_hint which is consumed by the userspace for
      distributing the interrupts
    
    - To apply an affinity that it provides for the iavf interrupts
    
    The latter is done to ensure that all the interrupts are evenly spread
    across all available CPUs. However, since commit a0c9259d ("irq/matrix:
    Spread interrupts on allocation") the spreading of interrupts is
    dynamically performed at the time of allocation. Hence, there is no need
    for the drivers to enforce their own affinity for the spreading of
    interrupts.
    
    Also, irq_set_affinity_hint() applying the provided cpumask as an affinity
    for the interrupt is an undocumented side effect. To remove this side
    effect irq_set_affinity_hint() has been marked as deprecated and new
    interfaces have been introduced. Hence, replace the irq_set_affinity_hint()
    with the new interface irq_update_affinity_hint() that only sets the
    pointer for the affinity_hint.
