Subject: Re: [PATCH] genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)

Max,

I realized, when reading this again, that the default masks
are not ffffffff.  That's the default only on systems with
no more than 32 CPUs.  Rather I suspect that the default is
CPU_MASK_ALL.  Indeed, your patch has:

   cpumask_t irq_default_affinity = CPU_MASK_ALL;

This affects a few mentions of ffffffff in the Docs.

Otherwise looks good - thanks.
