similar to: [PATCHv2 1/2] virtio: fix double free_irq on device removal

This refactors find_vqs, making it more readable and robust, and fixing two regressions from 2.6.30: - double free_irq causing BUG_ON on device removal - probe failure when vq can't be assigned to msi-x vector (reported on old host kernels) An older version of this patch was tested by Amit Shah.

This implements optional MSI-X support in virtio_pci. MSI-X is used whenever the host supports at least 2 MSI-X vectors: 1 for configuration changes and 1 for virtqueues. Per-virtqueue vectors are allocated if enough vectors available. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

1) Rename vp_request_vectors to vp_request_msix_vectors, and take non-MSI-X case out to caller. 2) Comment weird pci_enable_msix API 3) Rename vp_find_vq to setup_vq. 4) Fix spaces to tabs 5) Make nvectors calc internal to vp_try_to_find_vqs() 6) Rename vector to msix_vector for more clarity.

virtio currently fails to find any vqs if the device supports msi-x but fails to assign it to a queue. Turns out, this actually happens for old host kernels which can't allocate a gsi for the vector. As a result guest does not use virtio net. Fix this by retrying with less vectors and finally disabling msi on such failures and falling back on regular interrupts. Reported-by: Amit Shah

This lets IRQ layer handle dispatching IRQs to separate handlers for the case where we don't have per-VQ MSI-X vectors, and allows us to greatly simplify the code based on the assumption that we always have interrupt vector 0 (legacy INTx or config interrupt for MSI-X) available, and any other interrupt is request/freed throught the VQ, even if the actual interrupt line might be shared in some

One VM only has 128 msix interrupt, virtio-config interrupt has less workload. This patch shares one normal interrupt for configuration between virtio devices.
