I've updated both drivers to use pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity with the
PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY flag. But then I saw this:
dafeaf2c03e7 ("scsi: aacraid: Stop using PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY")
So we need be careful here.
In the case of lpfc (and qla2xxx), the nvme-fabrics core needs to be
updated too (gets out ouf sync with the number of queues allocated). I
already have patches for this. But I'd say we first continue with this
series before the next set of patches.
Thus I decided to drop all the driver updates which are currently not
using pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity and PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY. These are
supporting managed irqs thus these should be all ready for this feature.
For the rest of the drivers, I'd rather update one by one so we don't
introduce regressions (e.g. aacraid)
