[PATCH] [irq] Fix boot failure when irqaffinity is passed.

From: Rakib Mullick
Date: Thu Oct 26 2017 - 00:58:19 EST


When irqaffinity kernel param is passed in a CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y build
kernel, it fails to boot. zalloc_cpumask_var() cannot be used before
initializing mm stuff (slab allocator) to allocate cpumask. So, use
alloc_bootmem_cpumask_var(). Also in init_irq_default_affinity() removes
unneeded ifdef, these ifdef conditions are handled at defination site.
