    e1000e: test for unusable MSI support

    Some systems do not like 82571/2 use of 16-bit MSI messages and some
    other systems claim to support MSI, but neither really works.  Setup a
    test MSI handler to detect whether or not MSI is working properly, and
    if not, fallback to legacy INTx interrupts.
