[net-next-2.6 PATCH 1/3] irq: Export irq_set_affinity() for drivers

[Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>]

From: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr <peter.p.waskiewicz.jr@intel.com>

This patch allows drivers to specify an IRQ affinity mask for
their respective interrupt sources.  This is very useful on
network adapters using MSI-X, where aligning network flows
linearly to CPUs greatly improves efficiency of the network
stack.

Today, users must either hand-set affinity through /proc, or
use a script through the same interface.  This patch will allow
a driver to come completely pre-canned with an optimal
configuration.
