pci_intx() is a hybrid function which can sometimes be managed through

Since all users of pci_intx() have by now been ported either to
always-managed pcim_intx() or never-managed pci_intx_unmanaged(), the
devres functionality can be removed from pci_intx().

Consequently, pci_intx_unmanaged() is now redundant, because pci_intx()
itself is now unmanaged.

Remove the devres functionality from pci_intx(). Remove pci_intx_unmanaged().
Have all users of pci_intx_unmanaged() call pci_intx().

I don't like when we change a function like this but it still compiles fine.
If someone is working on a driver and hasn't pushed it yet, then it's probably
supposed to be using the new pcim_intx() but they won't discover that until they
detect the leaks at runtime.

Why not leave the pci_intx_unmanaged() name.  It's ugly and that will discorage
people from introducing new uses.
