commit c0af52437254fda8b0cdbaae5a9b6d9327f1fcd5 upstream.
Commit 34c3d9819fda ("genirq/affinity: Provide smarter irq spreading
infrastructure") introduced a better IRQ spreading mechanism, taking
account of the available NUMA nodes in the machine.
Problem is that the algorithm of retrieving the nodemask iterates
"linearly" based on the number of online nodes - some architectures
present non-linear node distribution among the nodemask, like PowerPC.
If this is the case, the algorithm lead to a wrong node count number
and therefore to a bad/incomplete IRQ affinity distribution.
For example, this problem were found in a machine with 128 CPUs and two
nodes, namely nodes 0 and 8 (instead of 0 and 1, if it was linearly
distributed). This led to a wrong affinity distribution which then led to
a bad mq allocation for nvme driver.
Finally, we take the opportunity to fix a comment regarding the affinity
distribution when we have _more_ nodes than vectors.

The current irq spreading infrastructure is just looking at a cpumask and
tries to spread the interrupts over the mask. Thats suboptimal as it does
not take numa nodes into account.
Change the logic so the interrupts are spread across numa nodes and inside
the nodes. If there are more cpus than vectors per node, then we set the
affinity to several cpus. If HT siblings are available we take that into
account and try to set all siblings to a single vector.

Without locking out CPU mask operations we might end up with an inconsistent
view of the cpumask in the function.

This is lifted from the blk-mq code and adopted to use the affinity mask
concept just introduced in the irq handling code. It tries to keep the
algorithm the same as the one current used by blk-mq, but improvements
like assining vectors on a per-node basis instead of just per sibling
are possible with this simple move and refactoring.
