Subject: [PATCH] PCI/portdrv: Remove "pcie_hp=nomsi" kernel parameter

From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@...gle.com>

7570a333d8b0 ("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).  There is no automated way to
set this parameter, so it's not very useful for distributions or end users.

I suspect the root cause of the underlying "irq 16: nobody cared" issue was
fixed by Prarit Bhargava <prarit@...hat.com> with fda78d7a0ead ("PCI/MSI:
Stop disabling MSI/MSI-X in pci_device_shutdown()") and we probably don't
need "pcie_hp=nomsi" any more.

Revert 7570a333d8b0 to remove the "pcie_hp=nomsi" parameter.
