Continue spreading the notion of affinity to the percpu interrupt
request code by updating the call sites that use request_percpu_nmi()
(all two of them) to take an affinity pointer. This pointer is
firmly NULL for now.

I was assuming this odd formatting was to help reduce churn in a later patch, but nope
this whole block get replaced in patch 18.  So might as well move NULL up a line
an have a cleaner intermediate state.

Odd inconsistency in parameter naming devname/name

Perhaps worth tidying that up whilst here. I only noticed because of the
wrap comment below.

This seems like an odd wrap and I can't immediately see it making more sense
in later patches.
