From: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org> commit 33de0aa4bae982ed6f7c777f86b5af3e627ac937 upstream. [ Fixed small conflicts due to the HK_FLAG_MANAGED_IRQ flag been renamed on upstream ] When booting with maxcpus=<small number> (or even loading a driver while most CPUs are offline), it is pretty easy to observe managed affinities containing a mix of online and offline CPUs being passed to the irqchip driver. This means that the irqchip cannot trust the affinity passed down from the core code, which is a bit annoying and requires (at least in theory) all drivers to implement some sort of affinity narrowing. In order to address this, always limit the cpumask to the set of online CPUs.

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.
