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]).

+NetLabel Linux Security Module Interface
+========================================

+
+Overview
+========
+
+NetLabel is a mechanism which can set and retrieve security attributes from
+network packets.  It is intended to be used by LSM developers who want to make
+use of a common code base for several different packet labeling protocols.
+The NetLabel security module API is defined in 'include/net/netlabel.h' but a
+brief overview is given below.
+
+NetLabel Security Attributes
+============================
+
+Since NetLabel supports multiple different packet labeling protocols and LSMs
+it uses the concept of security attributes to refer to the packet's security
+labels.  The NetLabel security attributes are defined by the
+'netlbl_lsm_secattr' structure in the NetLabel header file.  Internally the
+NetLabel subsystem converts the security attributes to and from the correct
+low-level packet label depending on the NetLabel build time and run time
+configuration.  It is up to the LSM developer to translate the NetLabel
+security attributes into whatever security identifiers are in use for their
+particular LSM.
+
+NetLabel LSM Protocol Operations
+================================
+
+These are the functions which allow the LSM developer to manipulate the labels
+on outgoing packets as well as read the labels on incoming packets.  Functions
+exist to operate both on sockets as well as the sk_buffs directly.  These high
+level functions are translated into low level protocol operations based on how
+the administrator has configured the NetLabel subsystem.
+
+NetLabel Label Mapping Cache Operations
+=======================================
+
+Depending on the exact configuration, translation between the network packet
+label and the internal LSM security identifier can be time consuming.  The
+NetLabel label mapping cache is a caching mechanism which can be used to
+sidestep much of this overhead once a mapping has been established.  Once the
+LSM has received a packet, used NetLabel to decode its security attributes,
+and translated the security attributes into a LSM internal identifier the LSM
+can use the NetLabel caching functions to associate the LSM internal
+identifier with the network packet's label.  This means that in the future
+when a incoming packet matches a cached value not only are the internal
+NetLabel translation mechanisms bypassed but the LSM translation mechanisms are
+bypassed as well which should result in a significant reduction in overhead.
