PCI: hv: Disable/enable IRQs rather than BH in hv_compose_msi_msg()

Commit de0aa7b2 ("PCI: hv: Fix 2 hang issues in hv_compose_msi_msg()")
uses local_bh_disable()/enable(), because hv_pci_onchannelcallback() can
also run in tasklet context as the channel event callback, so bottom halves
should be disabled to prevent a race condition.

With CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y in the recent mainline, or old kernels that
don't have commit f71b74bc ("irq/softirqs: Use lockdep to assert IRQs
are disabled/enabled"), when the upper layer IRQ code calls
hv_compose_msi_msg() with local IRQs disabled, we'll see a warning at the
beginning of __local_bh_enable_ip():

  IRQs not enabled as expected
    WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 408 at kernel/softirq.c:162 __local_bh_enable_ip

The warning exposes an issue in de0aa7b2: local_bh_enable() can
potentially call do_softirq(), which is not supposed to run when local IRQs
are disabled. Let's fix this by using local_irq_save()/restore() instead.

Note: hv_pci_onchannelcallback() is not a hot path because it's only called
when the PCI device is hot added and removed, which is infrequent.

Fixes: de0aa7b2
