I really don't think this sort of low level information has business in a low level driver. I've been trying to put some infrastructure together to move this to the core kernel [1], and it would be good to help use this in more drivers. Especially given that lpfc may use blk-mq which will not respect this current assignment for the queue mapping.
Agree. However, this patchset targets the non blk-mq/scsi-mq usage of the lpfc driver, which falls back to CPU-number/queue-number mapping. This turns out to still be the case w/ some distros where ppc64/le usually runs, on which it would be easier to adapt this relatively small change than moving forward w/ blk-mq/scsi-mq, for example -- even if the latter is clearly a superior approach.
