Subject: [PATCH 1/1] irq: Maintain user set affinity
This addresses a regression in that if a user specified an affinity
for an interrupt that affinity information would get reset between
a request_irq(), free_irq() and request_irq() for the same irq.
On example of this is bringing up an ethernet interface, taking
it down and bringing it back up again.
Instead of always using the irq_default_affinity we use the
previous setting of the IRQs affinity with the assumption that
at boot the IRQs affinity will be set to irq_default_affinity.
