PATCH 1/1 x86: don't disable MSI in order to mask an IRQ

... as that's not really correct, and there are devices which can't even cope with that. Instead, check whether an MSI IRQ can be masked, and if it can't, treat it just like a level triggered IO-APIC IRQ.

There's one other bug fix in here, correcting an off-by-one error on the entry_nr range check in __pci_enable_msix().
