If removed, msi entry couldn't be restored, such as pci_reset_function 
who will reset pci registers.

Then we need to add the check for dom0 only.

pci_write_config_dword(~msi_capable_mask(_control) | entry->masked) restore per vector
msi mask bits based on the support of PCI_MSI_FLAGS_MASKBIT. This is different from the
global mask bit in PCI_MSI_FLAGS.
