Patch title and the change description are a little short IMO to
describe what is going on here (need the blk-mq side too).

I'd also think it would be better to split this to 2 patches but
really not a must...

Question: is using pci_alloc_irq_vectors() obligated for
supplying blk-mq with the device affinity mask?

If I do this completely-untested [1] what will happen?
