Thanks for taking a look.

The gve driver already calls irq_get_effective_affinity_mask in the
hot path, so I'm planning on submitting a rfcv2 which will do this:

-               if (likely(gve_is_napi_on_home_cpu(priv, block->irq)))
+               const struct cpumask *aff_mask =
+                       irq_get_effective_affinity_mask(block->irq);
+
+               if (likely(napi_affinity_no_change(aff_mask)))
                        return budget;

with a change like that there'd be no behavioral change to gve since
it didn't cache before and still won't be caching after this change.

I think a change can be made to gve in a separate patch set to
support caching the affinity mask and does not need to be included
with this change.

What do you think?
