This bug was introduced in the 2.6.24 i386/x86_64 tree merge, where 
MSI-X vector allocation will eventually fail.  The cause is the new 
bit array tracking used vectors is not getting cleared properly on IRQ 
destruction on the 32-bit APIC code.
Greg, please fix the commit message - this is a separate bug that has 
nothing to do with the unification.
What should I fix the commit message to be?  I copied the same commit
message that went into Linus's tree.  We should be consistent :)

thanks,
