Merge branch 'virtio_net-Expand-affinity-to-arbitrary-numbers-of-cpu-and-vq'

Caleb Raitto says:

====================
virtio_net: Expand affinity to arbitrary numbers of cpu and vq

Virtio-net tries to pin each virtual queue rx and tx interrupt to a cpu if
there are as many queues as cpus.

Expand this heuristic to configure a reasonable affinity setting also
when the number of cpus != the number of virtual queues.

Patch 1 allows vqs to take an affinity mask with more than 1 cpu.
Patch 2 generalizes the algorithm in virtnet_set_affinity beyond
the case where #cpus == #vqs.

v2 changes:
Renamed "virtio_net: Make vp_set_vq_affinity() take a mask." to
"virtio: Make vp_set_vq_affinity() take a mask."

Tested:
