I don't really like this solution of putting the empty implementation
in the header file, because then a weak body is generated in the
object of every source file that includes the header.

default_teardown_msi_irqs() and default_restore_msi_irqs() seem like
fairly internal MSI functions, so I wonder why we need them defined at
all when CONFIG_PCI_MSI=n. It seems like any uses of them should be
in code that's only compiled when CONFIG_PCI_MSI=y. But I haven't
reproduced the problem and investigated yet.
