generic api takes care of spreading affinity similar to what mlx5 open coded (and even handles better asymmetric configurations). Ask the generic API to spread affinity for us, and feed him pre_vectors that do not participate in affinity settings (which is an improvement to what we had before). The affinity assignments should match what mlx5 tried to do earlier but now we do not set affinity to async, cmd and pages dedicated vectors. Also, remove mlx5e_get_cpu and introduce mlx5e_get_node (used for allocation purposes) and mlx5_get_vector_affinity (for indirection table construction) as they provide the needed information. Luckily, we have generic helpers to get cpumask and node given a irq vector. mlx5_get_vector_affinity will be used by mlx5_ib in a subsequent patch.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
