Commit Message

This patch improves few aspects of interrupt handling:
- update to current interrupt allocation API
  (use pci_alloc_irq_vectors() instead of deprecated pci_enable_msi())
- this implicitly will allocate a MSI-X interrupt if available
- get rid of flag RTL_FEATURE_MSI

Last but not least it enables a feature which was (I presume accidently)
disabled before. There are members of the RTL8169 family supporting MSI
(e.g. RTL8169SB), however MSI never got enabled because RTL_CFG_0 was
missing flag RTL_FEATURE_MSI.
An indicator for "accidently" is that statement "cfg2 |= MSIEnable;"
in rtl_try_msi() is dead code. cfg2 is used for chip versions <= 06
only and for all these chip versions RTL_FEATURE_MSI isn't set.

The patch works fine on a RTL8168evl (chip version 34).

The previously accidently disabled MSI support for the few members of
the old RTL8169 family supporting MSI isn't tested. The RTL8169SB
(chip version 04) I have at least still works in a PCI slot w/o MSI.

The reality is more simple: it could had been removed.

On purpose:
1. mostly untested
2. MSI without MSI-X does not buy much
3. wrt 2., ok, it kills (yucky) plain old shared PCI irq (remember those ?)
   but I didn't end feeling that good about realtek MSI support on older
   chipsets to enable it any further

Happily proceeding after error. :o/

Good to know, thanks for the feedback.
Then I'll change the patch to leave MSI disabled on old PCI chips.
Plus addressing your last comment.
