[PATCH qemu] spapr_pci: Disable IRQFD resampling on XIVE

[Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru>]

VFIO-PCI has an "KVM_IRQFD_FLAG_RESAMPLE" optimization for INTx EOI
handling when KVM can unmask PCI INTx (level triggered interrupt) without
switching to the userspace (==QEMU).

Unfortunately XIVE does not support level interrupts, QEMU emulates them
and therefore there is no existing code path to kick the resamplefd.
The problem appears when passing through a PCI adapter with
the "pci=nomsi" kernel parameter - the adapter's interrupt interrupt
count in /proc/interrupts will stuck at "1".

This disables resampler when the XIVE interrupt controller is configured.
This should not be very visible though KVM already exits to QEMU for INTx
and XIVE-capable boxes (POWER9 and newer) do not seem to have
performance-critical INTx-only capable devices.

Cédric, this is what I meant when I said that spapr_pci.c was unaware of
the interrupt controller type, neither xics nor xive was mentioned
in the file before.
