This patch extends the 'Parent::session()' and 'Root::session()'
functions with an additional 'affinity' parameter, which is inteded to
express the preferred affinity of the new session. For CPU sessions
provided by core, the values will be used to select the set of CPUs
assigned to the CPU session. For other services, the session affinity
information can be utilized to optimize the locality of the server
thread with the client. For example, to enable the IRQ session to route
an IRQ to the CPU core on which the corresponding device driver (the IRQ
client) is running.
This patch increases the stack size of entrypoint threads in the PCI and
PS/2 drivers, in the Terminal server and in the Signal service for 64-bit
Genode/Fiasco.OC built with -O0.
Fixes#198.
