genirq/affinity: Add is_managed to struct irq_affinity_desc
Devices which use managed interrupts usually have two classes of
interrupts:
- Interrupts for multiple device queues
- Interrupts for general device management
Currently both classes are treated the same way, i.e. as managed
interrupts. The general interrupts get the default affinity mask assigned
while the device queue interrupts are spread out over the possible CPUs.
Treating the general interrupts as managed is both a limitation and under
certain circumstances a bug. Assume the following situation:
default_irq_affinity = 4..7
So if CPUs 4-7 are offlined, then the core code will shut down the device
management interrupts because the last CPU in their affinity mask went
offline.
It's also a limitation because it's desired to allow manual placement of
the general device interrupts for various reasons. If they are marked
managed then the interrupt affinity setting from both user and kernel space
is disabled. That limitation was reported by Kashyap and Sumit.
Expand struct irq_affinity_desc with a new bit 'is_managed' which is set
for truly managed interrupts (queue interrupts) and cleared for the general
device interrupts.
