[PATCH linux-next] irq: Clear CPU mask in affinity_hint when none is provided

From: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr <hidden>
Date: 2010-05-05 20:48:16
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: irq subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Thomas Gleixner, Linus Torvalds

When an interrupt is disabled and torn down, the CPU mask
returned through affinity_hint right now is all CPUs.  Also, for
drivers that don't provide an affinity_hint mask, this can be
misleading.  There should be no hint at all, meaning an empty
CPU mask.
