[PATCH 1/8] PCI PCIe portdrv: Remove root ports MSI quirk

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx>

The PCI Express port driver contains a quirk that prevents root
ports from using MSI, but there is no explanation for it and the
PCI Express specification clearly allows root ports to use MSI.
