+ * Depending on the number of online CPUs in the original

+ * This can be a problem with multi-queue block devices driven

+ * with the single queue enforced by blk-mq during kdump (see
+ * blk_mq_alloc_tag_set()). This causes the device to remain
+ * silent and likely hangs the guest at some point.
+ *
+ * We don't really care for fine-grained affinity when doing

+ * masks in this case and let the default mask with all CPUs
+ * be used when creating the IRQ mappings.
