Hmm, indeed. Stupid me.
Here is a complete solution to the problem. We really want the drivers
to be fast and clean and not work around such issues.
I'm quite happy that I kept the 'force' argument of set_affinity
callbacks. I knew that I'd need it at some point.
So with the flag set we can disable the online mask check and force
the interrupt to the proper cpu.
Thanks,
