smartpqi cannot change IRQ smp_affinity

smartpqi cannot change IRQ smp_affinity

[Jesper Dangaard Brouer]

Hi Hellwig and Don,


On driver smartpqi I cannot change smp_affinity and smp_affinity_list 
entries.

It was suppose to be fixed by this patch: 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-scsi/patch/154422179851.1218.10349207247849277036.stgit@brunhilda/

I can see that Hellwig added back PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY flag in commit 
5219822687be ("scsi: smartpqi: switch to pci_alloc_irq_vectors").


Is there another way I can control which CPU that process IRQs from the 
disk controller?

Don:
Can you tell us what OS you are running and the driver version?
Output from uname -r and /sys/class/scsi_host/host4/driver_version
My system is using host4, it may be different on your system.
