Following is the data we can share:

Default interrupts affinity for each queue:

 25:          1        103          0    2989138  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989697-edge      mana_q0@pci:7870:00:00.0
 26:          0          1    4005360          0  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989698-edge      mana_q1@pci:7870:00:00.0
 27:          0          0          1    2997584  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989699-edge      mana_q2@pci:7870:00:00.0
 28:    3565461          0          0          1  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989700-edge      mana_q3
@pci:7870:00:00.0

As seen the CPU-queue mapping is not 1:1, Queue 0 and Queue 2 are both mapped 
to cpu3. From this knowledge we can figure out the total RX stats processed by
each CPU by adding the values of mana_q0 and mana_q2 stats for cpu3. But if
this data changes dynamically using irqbalance or smp_affinity file edits, the
above assumption fails. 

Interrupt affinity for mana_q2 changes and the affinity table looks as follows
 25:          1        103          0    3038084  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989697-edge      mana_q0@pci:7870:00:00.0
 26:          0          1    4012447          0  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989698-edge      mana_q1@pci:7870:00:00.0
 27:     157181         10          1    3007990  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989699-edge      mana_q2@pci:7870:00:00.0
 28:    3593858          0          0          1  Hyper-V PCIe MSI 4138200989700-edge      mana_q3@pci:7870:00:00.0 

And during this time we might end up calculating the per-CPU stats incorrectly,
messing up the understanding of CPU usage by MANA driver that is consumed by 
monitoring services. 
 

Also sharing the existing per-queue stats during this experiment, in case needed
