UBUNTU: SAUCE: x86/quirks: Add parameter to clear MSIs early on boot

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1797990

We observed a kdump failure in x86 that was narrowed down to MSI irq
storm coming from a PCI network device. The bug manifests as a lack of
progress in the boot process of kdump kernel, and a flood of kernel
messages like:

[...]
[ 342.265294] do_IRQ: 0.155 No irq handler for vector
[ 342.266916] do_IRQ: 0.155 No irq handler for vector
[ 347.258422] do_IRQ: 14053260 callbacks suppressed
[...]

The root cause of the issue is that kexec process of the kdump kernel
doesn't ensure PCI devices are reset or MSI capabilities are disabled,
so a PCI adapter could produce a huge amount of irqs which would steal
all the processing time for the CPU (specially since we usually restrict
kdump kernel to use a single CPU only).

This patch implements the kernel parameter "pci=clearmsi" to clear the
MSI/MSI-X enable bits in the Message Control register for all PCI devices
during early boot time, thus preventing potential issues in the kexec'ed
kernel. PCI spec also supports/enforces this need (see PCI Local Bus
spec sections 6.8.1.3 and 6.8.2.3).

nomsi [MSI] If the PCI_MSI kernel config parameter is
enabled, this kernel boot option can be used to
disable the use of MSI interrupts system-wide.
clearmsi [X86] Clears MSI/MSI-X enable bits early in boot
time in order to avoid issues like adapters
screaming irqs and preventing boot progress.
Also, it enforces the PCI Local Bus spec
rule that those bits should be 0 in system reset
events (useful for kexec/kdump cases).
noioapicquirk [APIC] Disable all boot interrupt quirks.
Safety option to keep boot IRQs enabled. This
should never be necessary.
