drm/nouveau: add support for MSI



Only supported on NV50+ so far, and disabled by default currently.  The
module parameter "msi=1" will enable it.

There's a kernel bug which will cause this to fail if the module (or the
NVIDIA binary driver) has ever been loaded before loading nouveau with
MSI enabled.  As such, this is only safe to enable if you have nouveau
load on boot, and don't wish to ever reload it.

The workaround is to "echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<device>/enable"
until the enable count reads 0.  Then you should be able to load nouveau
with MSI enabled.
