genirq: do not invoke the affinity callback via a workqueue

Joe Korty reported, that __irq_set_affinity_locked() schedules a
workqueue while holding a rawlock which results in a might_sleep()
warning.
This patch moves the invokation into a process context so that we only
wakeup() a process while holding the lock.
