'struct irq_affinity_notify' and the related functions are only defined
when SMP enabled, so at present, mlx4 has to only run under SMP.

The related error (allmodconfig under unicore32):

Making the entire driver depend upon SMP is not the answer,
other Mellanox developers said that a proper fix is pending
so please be patient.

OK, thank you for your information. I shall bypass it, and continue.

Thanks.

Indeed, we would do that just for the relevant portion,

Thank you for your work.

And next, when I meet the case like this again, instead of sending
patch, I shall send suggestion message to the related members/experts.


Thanks.
