So I am thinking that, adding following sched_work() would notify clients.

You cannot do that unconditionally and just slap that schedule_work() call
into the code. Aside of that schedule_work() would be invoked twice for all
calls which come via irq_set_affinity_locked() ....
Hi Tglx,

Yes. I agree with you, schedule_work() gets invoked twice with previous change.

How about calling irq_set_notify_locked() instead of irq_do_set_notify()?
