Subject: RE: [PATCH 09/22] [SCSI] mpt2sas, mpt3sas: Added a support to set cpu affinity for each MSIX vector enabled by the HBA

> Wouldn't it be better to do this in _base_assign_reply_queues since
> we're already iterating there?

Hi Martin,

As per your suggestion, I modified this feature with below changes.

Added a support to set cpu affinity mask for each MSIX vector enabled by the HBA.
So that, runnig the irqbalancer will balance interrupts among the cpus.

Change_set:
1. Added affinity_hint varable of type cpumask_var_t in adapter_reply_queue
   structure. And allocated a memory for this varable by calling zalloc_cpumask_var.
2. Call the API irq_set_affinity_hint for each MSIx vector to affiniate it
   with calculated cpus at driver inilization time.
3. While freeing the MSIX vector, call this same API to release the cpu affinity mask
   for each MSIx vector by providing the NULL value in cpumask argument.
4. then call the free_cpumask_var API to free the memory allocated in step 2.
