The problem is that how blk-mq looks at that flag, since the device representing the controller which allocates irq vectors isn't visible to blk-mq.In blk_mq_pci_map_queues and similar helpers.
Firstly it depends if drivers call into these helpers, so this way is fragile. Secondly, I think it isn't good to expose specific physical devices into blk-mq which shouldn't deal with physical device directly, also all the three helpers just duplicates same logic except for retrieving each vector's affinity from specific physical device. I will think about how to cleanup them.
