[RFC PATCH v1 0/4] arm/arm64: fix a migrating irq bug when hotplug cpu

Hi All,

There is a bug:

When cpu is disabled, all irqs will be migratged to another cpu.
In some cases, a new affinity is different, it needed to be coppied
to irq's affinity. But if the type of irq is LPI, it's affinity will
not be coppied because of irq_set_affinity's return value.



As Marc and Will suggested, I refactor the arm/arm64 migrating interrupts
code and fix the migrating irq bug while cpu is offline.

I'm trying let the core code do the migrating interrupts matter. kernel/irq/migration.c
depends on CONFIG_GENERIC_PENDING_IRQ, so I make it selected by CONFIG_SMP and
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU and rename it to CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION for more general.
When CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_MIGRATION is enabled, an interrupt whose state_use_accessors
is not set with IRQD_MOVE_PCNTXT won't be migrated immediately in irq_set_affinity_locked().
So introduce irq_settings_set_move_pcntxt() helper to set the state in gic_irq_domain_map().

With the above preparation, move the migrating interrupts code into kernel/irq/migration.c
and fix the bug by using irq_do_set_affinity().
