From: Saeed Mahameed saeedm@mellanox.com

[ Upstream commit 05e0cc84e00c54fb152d1f4b86bc211823a83d0c ]

mlx5_get_vector_affinity used to call pci_irq_get_affinity and after reverting the patch that sets the device affinity via PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY API, calling pci_irq_get_affinity becomes useless and it breaks RDMA mlx5 users. To fix this, this patch provides an alternative way to retrieve IRQ vector affinity using legacy IRQ API, following smp_affinity read procfs implementation.
