xen/pciback: For XEN_PCI_OP_disable_msi[|x] only disable if device has MSI(X) enabled.
commit 7cfb905b upstream. Otherwise just continue on, returning the same values as previously (return of 0, and op->result has the PIRQ value). This does not change the behavior of XEN_PCI_OP_disable_msi[|x]. The pci_disable_msi or pci_disable_msix have the checks for msi_enabled or msix_enabled so they will error out immediately. However the guest can still call these operations and cause us to disable the 'ack_intr'. That means the backend IRQ handler for the legacy interrupt will not respond to interrupts anymore. This will lead to (if the device is causing an interrupt storm) for the Linux generic code to disable the interrupt line. Naturally this will only happen if the device in question is plugged in on the motherboard on shared level interrupt GSI.
