Subject: [PATCH 2/2] cpumask fallout: Initialize irq_default_affinity earlier (v3).

Move the initialization of irq_default_affinity to early_irq_init as
core_initcall is too late.

irq_default_affinity can be used in init_IRQ and potentially timer and
SMP init as well.  All of these happen before core_initcall.  Moving
the initialization to early_irq_init ensures that it is initialized
before it is used.
