I think the affinity management is referring to IRQD_AFFINITY_MANAGED
which IIRC is the case when the device passes `struct irq_affinity` to
pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity.

Not sure what that has to do with passing a cpu to create_cq.

I don't remember if the comp_vector maps 1x1 to an irq vector, and if it
isn't then it is indeed obfuscated. But a similar model is heavily used
by the network stack with cpu_rmap, where this was derived from.

But regardless, its been two years, it is effectively dead code, and not
a single user complained about missing it. So we can safely purge them
and if someone cares about it, we can debate adding it back.
