c8757c6d870c4788da4980abaf21cb7369702ee9.debpatch [PATCH] activate_mapping: activate only online CPUs
When echoing a mask to /proc/irq/N/smp_affinity make sure to activate
only CPUs which are online. Activating a CPU which is not online results
in a EOVERFLOW.

b3f95beb62110ff6f808d04bd379aad108a2ae83.debpatch [PATCH] Adjust how we determine if a cpu is online
https://github.com/Irqbalance/irqbalance/issues/159

recently brought to our attention that online cpu status isn't functional on all
arches. Specifically on parisc, the availability of
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu<N>/online is in question. The implication here is
that its not feasible to accurately determine cpu count, and as a result,
irqbalance doesn't work on that arch

Fix it by changing our online detection strategy. The file
/sys/devices/system/cpu/online is a cpulist format file that seems to be present
accross all arches and configs. As such, we can use this file to determine
online status per cpu reliably.
