PCI/MSI: Enable multiple MSIs with pci_enable_msi_block_auto()
The new function pci_enable_msi_block_auto() tries to allocate maximum possible number of MSIs up to the number the device supports. It generalizes a pattern when pci_enable_msi_block() is contiguously called until it succeeds or fails. Opposite to pci_enable_msi_block() which takes the number of MSIs to allocate as a input parameter, pci_enable_msi_block_auto() could be used by device drivers to obtain the number of assigned MSIs and the number of MSIs the device supports.
