Subject: [PATCH 4/9] irq: only update affinity if set_affinity() sucessfully
 -v4


Impact: don't change smp_affinity if set_affinity fail

irq_set_affinity() and move_masked_irq() try to assign affinity
before calling chip set_affinity(). some archs are assigning again in set_affinity
again.

something like:
cpumask_cpy(desc->affinity, mask);
desc->chip->set_affinity(mask);

in the failing path, affinity should not be touched.

So try update the afffinity only if set_affinity return wth 0
also call irq_set_thread_affinity accordingly

v2: update after "irq, x86: Remove IRQ_DISABLED check in process context IRQ move"
v3: according to Ingo, change set_affinity() in irq_chip to return int.
v4: update comments by removing moving irq_desc code.
