No, this isn't fine, and it's also not only called at boot time. I
simply didn't spot this case of function re-use - I had come to
the conclusion that all calls to set_desc_affinity() would come
through the .set_affinity hook pointers (or happen sufficiently
early).

VT-d's adjust_irq_affinity() has a similar issue.

At boot time alone would be insufficient anyway. Not taking
locks can only be safe prior to bringing up APs; any later
skipping of locking would at least require additional justification.

It's not so much the first lock afaict. It's the combined action of
calling this function and setting the online bit which needs the
lock held around it. I.e. the function setting bits in various
descriptors' CPU masks (and the tracking of the vector -> IRQ
relationships) has to be atomic (to the outside world) with the
setting of the CPU's bit in cpu_online_map.

Thanks, but I'll not add this for now, given the further locking to
be added as per above.
