genirq: Get rid of global lock in irq_do_set_affinity()
Kunkun Jiang reports that for a workload involving the simultaneous startup
of a large number of VMs (for a total of about 200 vcpus), a lot of CPU
time gets spent on spinning on the tmp_mask_lock that exists as a static
raw spinlock in irq_do_set_affinity(). This lock protects a global cpumask
(tmp_mask) that is used as a temporary variable to compute the resulting
affinity.
While this is triggered by KVM issuing a irq_set_affinity() call each time
a vcpu is about to execute, it is obvious that having a single global
resource is not very scalable.
Since a cpumask can be a fairly large structure on systems with a high core
count, a stack allocation is not really appropriate. Instead, turn the
global cpumask into a per-CPU variable, removing the need for locking
altogether as the code is executed with preemption and interrupts disabled.
[ tglx: Moved the per CPU variable declaration outside of the function ]
