    x86/vsmp: Fix irq routing · 39025ba3
    Oren Twaig authored
    Correct IRQ routing in case a vSMP box is detected
    but the  Interrupt Routing Comply (IRC) value is set to
    "comply", which leads to incorrect IRQ routing.
    
    Before the patch:
    
    When a vSMP box was detected and IRC was set to "comply",
    users (and the kernel) couldn't effectively set the
    destination of the IRQs. This is because the hook inside
    vsmp_64.c always setup all CPUs as the IRQ destination using
    cpumask_setall() as the return value for IRQ allocation mask.
    Later, this "overrided" mask caused the kernel to set the IRQ
    destination to the lowest online CPU in the mask (CPU0 usually).
    
    After the patch:
    
    When the IRC is set to "comply", users (and the kernel) can control
    the destination of the IRQs as we will not be changing the
    default "apic->vector_allocation_domain".
