This commit adds support for message signaled interrupts to the Tegra
PCIe controller. Based on code by Krishna Kishore [off-list ref].

... then clears the interrupt status in the PCIe controller. Won't that
lose interrupts if one is raised between when the handler clears the
root-cause, and when this code clears the received interrupt status?
It certainly doesn't follow the conventional way of clearing the interrupt
first. I carried this from the original MSI patch, but I'll move the
interrupt clearing up and retest.

Should this free pcie->msi->pages?
Yes it should. I actually mention making that change in the changelog but
in fact didn't.
Why allocate pcie->msi separately; why not include the fields directly
into struct tegra_pcie_info *pcie?
For one I find this easier to read. If this wasn't a separate structure, each
of the individual fields would get an msi_ prefix anyway so there isn't much
to be gained from keeping them directly in tegra_pcie_info.

Second, and more importantly, this will keep the size of struct
tegra_pcie_info smaller if PCI_MSI is not selected because there is just one
unused pointer instead of five unused fields.
