[RFC] genirq: Add effective CPU index retrieving interface

[Shung-Hsi Yu <shung-hsi.yu@suse.com>]

Most driver's IRQ spreading scheme is naive compared to the IRQ spreading
scheme introduced since IRQ subsystem rework, so it better to rely
request_irq() to spread IRQ out.

However, drivers that care about performance enough also tends to try
allocating memory on the same NUMA node on which the IRQ handler will run.
For such driver to rely on request_irq() for IRQ spreading, we also need to
provide an interface to retrieve the CPU index after calling request_irq().

This should be the last missing piece of puzzle that allows removal of
calls to irq_set_affinity_hint() that were actually intended to spread out
IRQ.

I've ask previously in another thread[1], but there doesn't seem to be one,
so hence this patch.

I apologize if there's anything glaringly wrong, it's my 1st time trying to
send a patch that deals with driver interface. Just let me know, and I'll
get it fixed.

Also, there's probably better a name for the interface but I can't think of
one.
