PCI: Add pci_irq_type() to query the allocated interrupt typegrafted
Add a helper that returns PCI_IRQ_MSIX, PCI_IRQ_MSI, or PCI_IRQ_INTX based on the interrupt type the PCI core selected after pci_alloc_irq_vectors(). Several drivers already open-code this check against pdev->msix_enabled and pdev->msi_enabled, or even open code this helper [1]. A common helper avoids the duplication and keeps drivers from accessing the bitfield directly (see also [2]).

+Description:
+ If the permissive attribute is set, then writing a string in
+ the format of DDDD:BB:DD.F-REG:SIZE:MASK will allow the guest
+ to write and read from the PCI device. That is Domain:Bus:
+ Device.Function-Register:Size:Mask (Domain is optional).
+ For example::
+
+ #echo 00:19.0-E0:2:FF > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/quirks
+
+ will allow the guest to read and write to the configuration
+ register 0x0E.

+Description:
+ List of devices which can have interrupt control flag (INTx,
+ MSI, MSI-X) set by a connected guest. It is meant to be set
+ only when the guest is a stubdomain hosting device model (qemu)
+ and the actual device is assigned to a HVM. It is not safe
+ (similar to permissive attribute) to set for a devices assigned
+ to a PV guest. The device is automatically removed from this
+ list when the connected pcifront terminates.
