Log:
  MFC 302181: Add a tunable to disable migration of MSI-X interrupts.
  
  The new 'machdep.disable_msix_migration' tunable can be set to 1 to
  disable migration of MSI-X interrupts.
  
  Xen versions prior to 4.6.0 do not properly handle updates to MSI-X
  table entries after the initial write.  In particular, the operation
  to unmask a table entry after updating it during migration is not
  propagated to the "real" table for passthrough devices causing the
  interrupt to remain masked.  At least some systems in EC2 are
  affected by this bug when using SRIOV.  The tunable can be set in
  loader.conf as a workaround.
