Re: [RFC] export irq_set/get_affinity() for multiqueue network drivers

Also I suspect handling SMT explicitely is a good idea. e.g. I would
always set the affinity to all thread siblings in a core, not just a single one, because context switch is very cheap between them.

That is true, but don't they also "compete" for pipeline resources?
