genirq: Let irq thread follow the effective hard irq affinity
In case of threaded interrupts the thread follows the affinity setting of the hard interrupt. The related function uses the affinity mask which was set by either from user space or via one of the kernel mechanisms. This mask can be wider than the resulting effective affinity of the hard interrupt. As a consequence the thread might become affine to a completely different CPU. Use the effective interrupt affinity if the architecture supports it, so the hard interrupt and the thread stay on the same CPU.

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.
