With CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y cpumask_var_t is a struct cpumask pointer, otherwise a struct cpumask array with a single element.
irq_thread_check_affinity() validates the cpumask_var_t field in the interrupt descriptor by checking if it is not NULL. This works for both CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y/n, however clang raises the following warning with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n: kernel/irq/manage.c:839:28: error: address of array 'desc->irq_common_data.affinity' will always evaluate to 'true' [-Werror,-Wpointer-bool-conversion] To get rid of the warning only validate the cpumask_var_t field when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y.
