So is this based on the assumption that after initial setup the function
would only ever get called for affinity changes? I'm not even sure
this is the case today, but I don't think we should build in such a
dependency.

Assuming that the main motivation is to avoid ...

... the actual updating here, may I suggest that you keep the
construction of new_ire and modify the if() here to check whether
nothing except affinity related bits changed? That would also take
care of certain (older) compiler versions likely warning about new_ire
potentially being used uninitialized.
