    PCI/portdrv: Remove "pcie_hp=nomsi" kernel parameter · 1e447c57
    Bjorn Helgaas 提交于
    7570a333 ("PCI: Add pcie_hp=nomsi to disable MSI/MSI-X for pciehp
    driver") added the "pcie_hp=nomsi" kernel parameter to work around this
    error on shutdown:
    
      irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
      Pid: 1081, comm: reboot Not tainted 3.2.0 #1
      ...
      Disabling IRQ #16
    
    This happened on an unspecified system (possibly involving the Integrated
    Device Technology, Inc. Device 807f bridge) where "an un-wanted interrupt
    is generated when PCI driver switches from MSI/MSI-X to INTx while shutting
    down the device."
    
    The implication was that the device was buggy, but it is normal for a
    device to use INTx after MSI/MSI-X have been disabled.  The only problem
    was that the driver was still attached and it wasn't prepared for INTx
    interrupts.  Prarit Bhargava fixed this issue with fda78d7a ("PCI/MSI:
    Stop disabling MSI/MSI-X in pci_device_shutdown()").
    
    There is no automated way to set this parameter, so it's not very useful
    for distributions or end users.  It's really only useful for debugging, and
    we have "pci=nomsi" for that purpose.
    
    Revert 7570a333 to remove the "pcie_hp=nomsi" parameter.
