With certain platforms its possible pci_alloc_irq_vectors() may affinitize irq vectors to multiple (all?) CPUs. The driver is currently assuming exclusivity and vectors being doled out to different CPUs and is assigning primary ownership of each vector to the first CPU in the mask. The code doesn't bother to check if the CPU already owns a vector and will unconditionally overwrite the CPU to vector mapping. This causes the relationships between eq's and cq's to get confused and gets worse when CPUs start to offline. The net results are interrupts are skipped resulting in mailbox timeouts and there are oopses in CPU offling flows. Fix this changing up the primary vector assignment. Now assign the eq to a CPU only if it is the CPU in the mask that does not have a prior assignment. And once the primary ownership is assigned, break from the loop. For CPUs that may have been set before but not the primary owner, the lpfc_cpu_affinity_check() routine will balance the CPU to eq assignment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
