genirq/affinity: Move group_cpus_evenly() into lib/

group_cpus_evenly() has become a generic function which can be used for
other subsystems than the interrupt subsystem, so move it into lib/.

-	 * node's nr_cpus to remaining un-assigned ncpus. 'numgrps' is
-	 * bigger than number of active numa nodes. Always start the

-	 *
-	 * This way guarantees that each active node gets allocated at

-	 * is only done when this node is assigned by one group, so
-	 * other nodes will be allocated >= 1 groups, since 'numgrps' is
-	 * bigger than number of numa nodes.
-	 *
-	 * One perfect invariant is that number of allocated groups for
-	 * each node is <= CPU count of this node:
-	 *
-	 * 1) suppose there are two nodes: A and B
-	 * 	ncpu(X) is CPU count of node X
-	 * 	grps(X) is the group count allocated to node X via this
-	 * 	algorithm
-	 *
-	 * 	ncpu(A) <= ncpu(B)
-	 * 	ncpu(A) + ncpu(B) = N
-	 * 	grps(A) + grps(B) = G
-	 *
-	 * 	grps(A) = max(1, round_down(G * ncpu(A) / N))
-	 * 	grps(B) = G - grps(A)
-	 *
-	 * 	both N and G are integer, and 2 <= G <= N, suppose
-	 * 	G = N - delta, and 0 <= delta <= N - 2
-	 *
-	 * 2) obviously grps(A) <= ncpu(A) because:
-	 *
-	 * 	if grps(A) is 1, then grps(A) <= ncpu(A) given
-	 * 	ncpu(A) >= 1
-	 *
-	 * 	otherwise,
-	 * 		grps(A) <= G * ncpu(A) / N <= ncpu(A), given G <= N
-	 *
-	 * 3) prove how grps(B) <= ncpu(B):
-	 *
-	 * 	if round_down(G * ncpu(A) / N) == 0, vecs(B) won't be
-	 * 	over-allocated, so grps(B) <= ncpu(B),
-	 *
-	 * 	otherwise:
-	 *
-	 * 	grps(A) =
-	 * 		round_down(G * ncpu(A) / N) =
-	 * 		round_down((N - delta) * ncpu(A) / N) =
-	 * 		round_down((N * ncpu(A) - delta * ncpu(A)) / N)	 >=
-	 * 		round_down((N * ncpu(A) - delta * N) / N)	 =
-	 * 		cpu(A) - delta
-	 *
-	 * 	then:
-	 *
-	 * 	grps(A) - G >= ncpu(A) - delta - G
-	 * 	=>
-	 * 	G - grps(A) <= G + delta - ncpu(A)
-	 * 	=>
-	 * 	grps(B) <= N - ncpu(A)
-	 * 	=>
-	 * 	grps(B) <= cpu(B)
-	 *
-	 * For nodes >= 3, it can be thought as one node and another big
-	 * node given that is exactly what this algorithm is implemented,
-	 * and we always re-calculate 'remaining_ncpus' & 'numgrps', and
-	 * finally for each node X: grps(X) <= ncpu(X).

+	 * Allocate groups for each node according to the ratio of this
+	 * node's nr_cpus to remaining un-assigned ncpus. 'numgrps' is
+	 * bigger than number of active numa nodes. Always start the
+	 * allocation from the node with minimized nr_cpus.
+	 *
+	 * This way guarantees that each active node gets allocated at
+	 * least one group, and the theory is simple: over-allocation
+	 * is only done when this node is assigned by one group, so
+	 * other nodes will be allocated >= 1 groups, since 'numgrps' is
+	 * bigger than number of numa nodes.
+	 *
+	 * One perfect invariant is that number of allocated groups for
+	 * each node is <= CPU count of this node:
+	 *
+	 * 1) suppose there are two nodes: A and B
+	 * 	ncpu(X) is CPU count of node X
+	 * 	grps(X) is the group count allocated to node X via this
+	 * 	algorithm
+	 *
+	 * 	ncpu(A) <= ncpu(B)
+	 * 	ncpu(A) + ncpu(B) = N
+	 * 	grps(A) + grps(B) = G
+	 *
+	 * 	grps(A) = max(1, round_down(G * ncpu(A) / N))
+	 * 	grps(B) = G - grps(A)
+	 *
+	 * 	both N and G are integer, and 2 <= G <= N, suppose
+	 * 	G = N - delta, and 0 <= delta <= N - 2
+	 *
+	 * 2) obviously grps(A) <= ncpu(A) because:
+	 *
+	 * 	if grps(A) is 1, then grps(A) <= ncpu(A) given
+	 * 	ncpu(A) >= 1
+	 *
+	 * 	otherwise,
+	 * 		grps(A) <= G * ncpu(A) / N <= ncpu(A), given G <= N
+	 *
+	 * 3) prove how grps(B) <= ncpu(B):
+	 *
+	 * 	if round_down(G * ncpu(A) / N) == 0, vecs(B) won't be
+	 * 	over-allocated, so grps(B) <= ncpu(B),
+	 *
+	 * 	otherwise:
+	 *
+	 * 	grps(A) =
+	 * 		round_down(G * ncpu(A) / N) =
+	 * 		round_down((N - delta) * ncpu(A) / N) =
+	 * 		round_down((N * ncpu(A) - delta * ncpu(A)) / N)	 >=
+	 * 		round_down((N * ncpu(A) - delta * N) / N)	 =
+	 * 		cpu(A) - delta
+	 *
+	 * 	then:
+	 *
+	 * 	grps(A) - G >= ncpu(A) - delta - G
+	 * 	=>
+	 * 	G - grps(A) <= G + delta - ncpu(A)
+	 * 	=>
+	 * 	grps(B) <= N - ncpu(A)
+	 * 	=>
+	 * 	grps(B) <= cpu(B)
+	 *
+	 * For nodes >= 3, it can be thought as one node and another big
+	 * node given that is exactly what this algorithm is implemented,
+	 * and we always re-calculate 'remaining_ncpus' & 'numgrps', and
+	 * finally for each node X: grps(X) <= ncpu(X).
