- Rework of the Per Processor Interrupt (PPI) management on ARM[64].
PPI support was built under the assumption that the systems are
homogenous so that the same CPU local device types are connected to
them. That's unfortunately wishful thinking and created horrible
workarounds.
This rework provides affinity management for PPIs so that they can be
individually configured in the firmware tables and mops up the related
drivers all over the place.
- Prevent CPUSET/isolation changes to arbitrarily affine interrupt
threads to random CPUs, which ignores user or driver settings.
- Plug a harmless race in the interrupt affinity proc interface, which
allows to see a half updated mask
- Adjust the priority of secondary interrupt threads on RT, so that the
combination of primary and secondary thread emulates the hardware
interrupt plus thread scenario. Having them at the same priority can
cause starvation issues in some drivers.
