genirq: Do not copy affinity before set

While rumaging through arch code I found that there are a few
workarounds which deal with the fact that the initial affinity setting
from request_irq() copies the mask into irq_data->affinity before the
chip code is called. In the normal path we unconditionally copy the
mask when the chip code returns 0.

Copy after the code is called and add a return code
IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY for the chip functions, which prevents the
copy. That way we see the real mask when the chip function decided to
truncate it further as some arches do. IRQ_SET_MASK_OK is 0, which is
the current behaviour.
