Merge branch 'pci/msi'
- Document sysfs "irq" attribute, which contains either the INTx IRQ (the intended behavior) or the first MSI IRQ (historical mistake retained for backwards compatibility) (Barry Song) - Rework "irq" sysfs show function to explicitly fetch first MSI IRQ instead of depending on core to put it in dev->irq, to enable future core cleanup (Barry Song) * pci/msi: PCI/sysfs: Explicitly show first MSI IRQ for 'irq' PCI: Document /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../irq

+Description:
+ If a driver has enabled MSI (not MSI-X), "irq" contains the
+ IRQ of the first MSI vector. Otherwise "irq" contains the
+ IRQ of the legacy INTx interrupt.
+
+ "irq" being set to 0 indicates that the device isn't
+ capable of generating legacy INTx interrupts.
