[ofa-general] [PATCH v2 for-2.6.24] IB/mthca: enable MSI-X by default

Recover from MSI-X errors by automatically falling back on regular interrupt,
instead of asking the user to do this manually.  This makes it possible to
enable MSI-X by default, and will make it possible to get rid of msi_x module
option in the future.
