[PATCH 6/8] Disable MSI by default on non-PCI-E chipset

Most PCI-E chipsets support MSI while several non-PCI-E don't.
Disable MSI when the associated root chipset is not a PCI-E one
and does not have the PCI_BUS_FLAGS_MSI flag.
On PCI-E chipset, MSI are enabled unless PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_MSI
is not set.
