>Let's consider this topology:

>Node            0               1
>Core        0       1       2       3
>CPU       0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7

>The most performant IRQ distribution based on the above topology and heuristics

>IRQ     Nodes   Cores   CPUs
>0       1       0       0-1
>1       1       1       2-3
>2       1       0       0-1
>3       1       1       2-3
>4       2       2       4-5
>5       2       3       6-7
>6       2       2       4-5
>7       2       3       6-7
