pci/xen: When free-ing MSI-X/MSI irq->desc also use generic code.
This code path is only run when an MSI/MSI-X PCI device is passed in to PV DomU. In 2.6.37 time-frame we over-wrote the default cleanup handler for MSI/MSI-X irq->desc to be "xen_teardown_msi_irqs". That function calls the the xen-pcifront driver which can tell the backend to cleanup/take back the MSI/MSI-X device. However, we forgot to continue the process of free-ing the MSI/MSI-X device resources (irq->desc) in the PV domU side. Which is what the default cleanup handler: default_teardown_msi_irqs did. Hence we would leak IRQ descriptors. Without this patch, doing "rmmod igbvf;modprobe igbvf" multiple times ends with abandoned IRQ descriptors: 28: 5 xen-pirq-pcifront-msi-x 29: 8 xen-pirq-pcifront-msi-x ... 130: 10 xen-pirq-pcifront-msi-x with the end result of running out of IRQ descriptors.
