net/mlx5: Use effective affinity mask for IRQ selection
When a sf is created after a CPU has been taken offline, the IRQ pool may contain IRQs with affinity masks that include the offline CPU. Since only online CPUs should be considered for IRQ placement, cpumask_subset() check would fail because the iter_mask contains offline CPUs that are not present in req_mask, causing sf creation to fail. This is an example: 1. When mlx5 driver loads, it initializes the IRQ pools. For sf_ctrl_pool with ≤64 sf: - xa_num_irqs = {N, N} (There is only one slot) 2. When the first SF is created: - The ctrl IRQ is allocated with mask=cpu_online_mask={0-191} 2. We take CPU 20 offline 3. Existing ctl irq still have mask={0-191} 4. Create a new SF: - req_mask={0-19,21-191} - iter_mask={0-191} - {0-191} is NOT a subset of {0-19,21-191} - least_loaded_irq=NULL 5. Try to allocate a new irq via irq_pool_request_irq() 6. xa_alloc() fails because the pool is full(There is only one slot) 7. sf creation fails with error Use irq_get_effective_affinity_mask() instead, which returns the IRQ's actual effective affinity that already excludes offline CPUs.
