Thomas,
We could not test these patches as they did net get applied to latest
linux-block tree cleanly.

Our requirement is: 1. extra interrupts should be un-managed and 2.
should be spread to CPUs of local NUMA node.
If interrupts are un-managed but not spread as per our requirement,
then still driver/userspace apps can manage by spreading
them as required by calling API- irq_set_affinity_hint().

Thanks,
Sumit
