[PATCH v4 2/2] powerpc/pseries: Pass MSI affinity to irq_create_mapping()

With virtio multiqueue, normally each queue IRQ is mapped to a CPU.

Commit 0d9f0a52c8b9f ("virtio_scsi: use virtio IRQ affinity") exposed
an existing shortcoming of the arch code by moving virtio_scsi to
the automatic IRQ affinity assignment.

The affinity is correctly computed in msi_desc but this is not applied
to the system IRQs.

It appears the affinity is correctly passed to rtas_setup_msi_irqs() but
lost at this point and never passed to irq_domain_alloc_descs()
(see commit 06ee6d571f0e ("genirq: Add affinity hint to irq allocation"))
because irq_create_mapping() doesn't take an affinity parameter.

As the previous patch has added the affinity parameter to
irq_create_mapping() we can forward the affinity from rtas_setup_msi_irqs()
to irq_domain_alloc_descs().

With this change, the virtqueues are correctly dispatched between the CPUs
on pseries.
