That's where it, or rather the current equivalent, lives, which is a bit
silly.  That being said, I suspect the nicest thing would be to offer a
real irq_get_affinity interface at the bus level.

e.g. add something like:


	const struct cpumask *(*irq_get_affinity(struct device *dev,
			unsigned int irq_vec);

to struct bus_type so that any layer can just query the irq affinity
for buses that support it without extra glue code.
