genirq: Add default affinity mask command line option

Browse source

If we isolate CPUs, then we don't want random device interrupts on them. Even
w/o the user space irq balancer enabled we can end up with irqs on non boot
cpus and chasing newly requested interrupts is a tedious task.

Allow to restrict the default irq affinity mask.
