Ah...  No, this isn't a Smatch warning.  I think I tried to add it but
was told it was wrong because I have this in my unpublished code.  :P

// Are these affected by pcim_enable_device()?
//      { "pci_alloc_irq_vectors", ALLOC, 0, "$",  &int_one, &int_max },
//      { "pci_free_irq_vectors", RELEASE, 0, "$" },

So when we're using pcim_enable_device(), calling pci_free_irq_vectors()
is harmless but not necessary?
