A set of updates for the interrupt subsystem:
- Make multiqueue devices which use the managed interrupt affinity
infrastructure work on PowerPC/Pseries. PowerPC does not use the
generic infrastructure for setting up PCI/MSI interrupts and the
multiqueue changes failed to update the legacy PCI/MSI infrastructure.
Make this work by passing the affinity setup information down to the
mapping and allocation functions.
- Move Jason Cooper from MAINTAINERS to CREDITS as his mail is bouncing
and he's not reachable. We hope all is well with him and say thanks
for his work over the years.
powerpc/pseries: Pass MSI affinity to irq_create_mapping()
With virtio multiqueue, normally each queue IRQ is mapped to a CPU.
Commit 0d9f0a52c8b9f ("virtio_scsi: use virtio IRQ affinity") exposed
an existing shortcoming of the arch code by moving virtio_scsi to
the automatic IRQ affinity assignment.
The affinity is correctly computed in msi_desc but this is not applied
to the system IRQs.
It appears the affinity is correctly passed to rtas_setup_msi_irqs() but
lost at this point and never passed to irq_domain_alloc_descs()
(see commit 06ee6d571f0e ("genirq: Add affinity hint to irq allocation"))
because irq_create_mapping() doesn't take an affinity parameter.
Use the new irq_create_mapping_affinity() function, which allows to forward
the affinity setting from rtas_setup_msi_irqs() to irq_domain_alloc_descs().
With this change, the virtqueues are correctly dispatched between the CPUs
on pseries.
