I am not sure the new assignment will match what we tried to do before
this patch, and i would like to preserve that behavior
from before we simply spread comp vectors to the close numa cpus first
then to other cores uniformly.
i.e prefer first IRQs to go to close numa cores.

for example if you have 2 numa nodes each have 4 cpus, and the device
is on 2nd numa,
Numa 1 cpus: 0 1 2 3
Numa 2 cpus: 4 5 6 7

this should be the affinity:

IRQ[0] -> cpu[4] (Numa 2)
IRQ[1] -> cpu[5]
IRQ[2] -> cpu[6]
IRQ[3] -> cpu[7]

IRQ[4] -> cpu[0] (Numa 1)
IRQ[5] -> cpu[1]
IRQ[6] -> cpu[2]
IRQ[7] -> cpu[3]

looking at irq_create_affinity_masks, and it seems not to be the case !
"nodemask_t nodemsk = NODE_MASK_NONE;" it doesn't seem to prefer any numa node.

I am sure that there is a way to force our mlx5 affinity strategy and
override the default one with the new API.

let's keep this abstraction, even let's consider moving this to a
helper function in the mlx5_core dirver main.c,
it is not right when mlx5_ib and mlx5e netdev know about internal mdev
structures and implementations of stuff.

I suggest to move mlx5_ib_get_vector_affinity from patch #4 into
drivers/net/ethernet/../mlx5/core/main.c
and rename it to mlx5_get_vector_affinity and use it from both rdma
and netdevice

and change the above function to:

static int mlx5e_get_cpu(struct mlx5e_priv *priv, int ix)
{
       return cpumask_first(mlx5_get_vector_affinity(priv->mdev, ix));
}

Also this way you don't have to touch all the lines that used
mlx5e_get_cpu in this file.

this might yield different behavior of what originally intended we
want to get the node of the CPU and not of the IRQ's, maybe there is
no difference but
let's keep mlx5e_get_cpu abstraction as above.
