That's wrong. The driver should not fiddle with the affinity mask at all
and just store the effective mask.

If yuo look at the call site, then you'll notice that it will do:

        case IRQ_SET_MASK_OK:
        case IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_DONE:
                cpumask_copy(desc->irq_common_data.affinity, mask);

So the cpumask_copy() can just go away.
