Subject: [PATCH RT 01/25] Fix wrong-variable use in irq_set_affinity_notifier

From: Joe Korty <joe.korty@...current-rt.com>

v4.14.170-rt75-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

-----------


[ Fixes upstream commit 3e4242082f0384311f15ab9c93e2620268c6257f,
  which erroneously switched old_notify->work to notify->work when
  fixing a merge conflict ]

4.14-rt: Fix wrong-variable use in irq_set_affinity_notifier.

The bug was introduced in the 4.14-rt patch

   0461-genirq-Handle-missing-work_struct-in-irq_set_affinit.patch

The symptom is a NULL pointer panic in the i40e driver on
system shutdown.

    Rebooting.
