[PATCH] r8169: Reset IntrStatus after chip rest

On a MSI MS-6702E mainboard, when in rtl8169_init_one() for the first time
after BIOS has run, IntrStatus reads 5 after chip has been reset.
IntrStatus should equal 0 there, so patch changes IntrStatus reset to happen
after chip reset instead of before.
R8169_MSG_DEFAULT is changed to include NETIF_MSG_INTR, because without
an important error message from rtl8169_interrupt() isn't shown by default.

Thanks.

I'll wrap it up without the change to R8169_MSG_DEFAULT:
- it can be set through ethtool and a module option
- the current default is not a clear nuisance
