Subject: [PATCH 4.12 37/43] ahci: dont use MSI for devices with the silly Intel NVMe remapping scheme

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de>

commit f723fa4e69920f6a5dd5fa0d10ce90e2f14d189c upstream.

Intel AHCI controllers that also hide NVMe devices in their bar
can't use MSI interrupts, so disable them.
