Thomas Gleixner 4e52a4fe6f genirq: Provide IRQCHIP_AFFINITY_PRE_STARTUP
commit 826da771291fc25a428e871f9e7fb465e390f852 upstream.

X86 IO/APIC and MSI interrupts (when used without interrupts remapping)
require that the affinity setup on startup is done before the interrupt is
enabled for the first time as the non-remapped operation mode cannot safely
migrate enabled interrupts from arbitrary contexts. Provide a new irq chip
flag which allows affected hardware to request this.

This has to be opt-in because there have been reports in the past that some
interrupt chips cannot handle affinity setting before startup.

Fixes: 18404756765c ("genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
