Any suggestions on what should be the next steps here? Unfortunately, I haven't
been able to get any reviews on the following two patches:
  be2net: Use irq_update_affinity_hint
  hinic: Use irq_set_affinity_and_hint

One option would be to proceed with the remaining patches and I can try
posting these two again when I post patches for the remaining drivers?
