genirq: Restrict effective affinity to interrupts actually using it

Just because CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_EFFECTIVE_AFF_MASK is selected
doesn't mean that all the interrupts are using the effective
affinity mask. For a number of them, this mask is likely to
be empty.

In order to deal with this, let's restrict the use of the
effective affinity mask to these interrupts that have a non empty
effective affinity.
