Patch
f598282f5145036312d90875d0ed5c14b49fd8a7 exposed a problem in
powerpc MSI-X functionality, making network interfaces such as ixgbe
and cxgb3 stop to work when MSI-X is enabled. RX interrupts were not
being generated.
The problem was caused because MSI irq was not being effectively
unmasked after device initialization.
