Summary

So far, intr_{g,s}etaffinity(9) take a single int for identifying
a device interrupt. This approach doesn't work on all architectures
supported, as a single int isn't sufficient to globally specify a
device interrupt. In particular, with multiple interrupt controllers
in one system as found on e. g. arm and arm64 machines, an interrupt
number as returned by rman_get_start(9) may be only unique relative
to the bus and, thus, interrupt controller, a certain device hangs
off from.
In turn, this makes taskqgroup_attach{,_cpu}(9) and - internal to
the gtaskqueue implementation - taskqgroup_attach_deferred{,_cpu}()
not work across architectures. Yet in turn, iflib(4) as gtaskqueue
consumer so far doesn't fit architectures where interrupt numbers
aren't globally unique.
However, at least for intr_setaffinity(..., CPU_WHICH_IRQ, ...) as
employed by the gtaskqueue implementation to bind an interrupt to a
particular CPU, using bus_bind_intr(9) instead is equivalent from
a functional point of view, with bus_bind_intr(9) taking the device
and interrupt resource arguments required for uniquely specifying a
device interrupt.
Thus, change the gtaskqueue implementation to employ bus_bind_intr(9)
instead and intr_{g,s}etaffinity(9) to take the device and interrupt
resource arguments required respectively. This change also moves
struct grouptask from <sys/_task.h> to <sys/gtaskqueue.h> and wraps
struct gtask along with the gtask_fn_t typedef into #ifdef _KERNEL
as userland likes to include <sys/_task.h> or indirectly drags it
in - for better or worse also with _KERNEL defined -, which with
device_t and struct resource dependencies otherwise is no longer
as easily possible now.

While at it:

  • Change the gt_cpu member in the grouptask structure to be of type int as used elswhere for specifying CPUs (an int16_t may be too narrow sooner or later),
  • move the gtaskqueue_enqueue_fn typedef from <sys/gtaskqueue.h> to the gtaskqueue implementation as it's only used and needed there,
  • change the GTASK_INIT macro to use "gtask" rather than "task" as argument given that it actually operates on a struct gtask rather than a struct task, and
  • let subr_gtaskqueue.c consistently use func to print functions names.

That's simply perfect, many thanks.
I tested this on arm64, all work like charm. (But I'm able to do only limited test, my iflib based driver is still far far away from working state)
