  May 20 14:39:28 txsllabc7k001 /usr/sbin/irqbalance: irq 123 affinity_hint subset empty
  May 20 14:39:28 txsllabc7k001 /usr/sbin/irqbalance: irq 125 affinity_hint [Repeat]

  ProblemType: Bug
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04
  Package: irqbalance 1.0.6-2
  ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-24.47-generic 3.13.9
  Uname: Linux 3.13.0-24-generic x86_64
  ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.1

  UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)

  [Impact]

  Syslog writes a repeated set of affinity_hint entries, affecting logs
  visibility and potentially causing high disk usage.

  [Test]

  - Install irqbalance package.
  - Enable /etc/default/irqbalance
  #Configuration for the irqbalance daemon
  #Should irqbalance be enabled?
  ENABLED="1"
  - Start (service start irqbalance)

  [Regression Potential]

  - None is expected.

  [Other Info]

  The fix is to only warn once for affinity hint subset empty irqs.
