Just a note to the ^ - if we wanted to get rid of msix_affinity_masks,
we could call irq_set_affinity directly, instead of calling it through
irq_set_affinity[_and]_hint.
The hint wouldn't be available any more in /proc/irq/N/affinity_hint,
but the same information can be gathered from /proc/irq/N/smp_affinity.
