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.
