When creating a new event channel with 2-level events the affinity
needs to be reset initially in order to avoid using an old affinity
from earlier usage of the event channel port.
The same applies to the affinity when onlining a vcpu: all old
affinity settings for this vcpu must be reset. As percpu events get
initialized before the percpu event channel hook is called,
resetting of the affinities happens after offlining a vcpu (this is
working, as initial percpu memory is zeroed out).

The bit corresponding to the event channel can only be set on a single
CPU. Could we avoid the loop and instead clear the bit while closing
the port?
This would need another callback.
Right, this seems to be better than walking over all the CPUs every time
just for cleaning one bit.
