Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Three interrupt related fixes for X86:

   - Move disabling of the local APIC after invoking fixup_irqs() to
     ensure that interrupts which are incoming are noted in the IRR and
     not ignored.

   - Unbreak affinity setting.

     The rework of the entry code reused the regular exception entry
     code for device interrupts. The vector number is pushed into the
     errorcode slot on the stack which is then lifted into an argument
     and set to -1 because that's regs->orig_ax which is used in quite
     some places to check whether the entry came from a syscall.

     But it was overlooked that orig_ax is used in the affinity cleanup
     code to validate whether the interrupt has arrived on the new
     target. It turned out that this vector check is pointless because
     interrupts are never moved from one vector to another on the same
     CPU. That check is a hist...
