[PATCH] cciss: adds MSI and MSI-X support
This creates a new function, cciss_interrupt_mode called from cciss_pci_init. This function determines what type of interrupt vector to use, i.e., MSI, MSI-X, or IO-APIC. One noticeable difference is changing the interrupt field of the controller struct to an array of 4 unsigned ints. The Smart Array HW is capable of generating 4 distinct interrupts depending on the transport method in use during operation. These are: #define DOORBELL_INT 0 Used to notify the contoller of configuration updates. We only use this feature when in polling mode. #define PERF_MODE_INT 0 Used when the controller is in Performant Mode. #define SIMPLE_MODE_INT 2 Used when the controller is in Simple Mode (current Linux implementation). #define MEMQ_INT_MODE 3 Not used. When using IO-APIC interrupts these 4 lines are OR'ed together so when any one fires an interrupt an is generated. In MSI or MSI-X mode this hardware OR'ing is ignored. We must register for our interrupt depending on what mode the controller is running. For Linux we use SIMPLE_MODE_INT exclusively at this time. Please consider this for inclusion.
