Rusty Russell e06b1b56f9 x86: Correct behaviour of irq affinity
Impact: get correct smp_affinity as user requested

The effect of setting desc->affinity (ie. from userspace via sysfs) has
varied over time.  In 2.6.27, the 32-bit code anded the value with
cpu_online_map, and both 32 and 64-bit did that anding whenever a cpu
was unplugged.

2.6.29 consolidated this into one routine (and fixed hotplug) but
introduced another variation: anding the affinity with cfg->domain.

We should just set it to what the user said - if possible.

(cpu_mask_to_apicid_and already takes cpu_online_mask into account)
