[Patch v1] x86, ACPI, irq: Fix a regression caused by

From: Jiang Liu

Nick Meier reported a regression with HyperV that "
After rebooting the VM, the following messages are logged in syslog
when trying to load the tulip driver:
tulip: Linux Tulip drivers version 1.1.15 (Feb 27, 2007)
tulip: 0000:00:0a.0: PCI INT A: failed to register GSI
tulip: Cannot enable tulip board #0, aborting
tulip: probe of 0000:00:0a.0 failed with error -16
Errors occur in 3.19.0 kernel
Works in 3.17 kernel.
"

According to the ACPI dump file posted by Nick at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1440072

The ACPI MADT table includes an interrupt source overridden entry for
ACPI SCI:
[236h 0566 1] Subtable Type : 02 <Interrupt Source Override>
[237h 0567 1] Length : 0A
[238h 0568 1] Bus : 00
[239h 0569 1] Source : 09
[23Ah 0570 4] Interrupt : 00000009
[23Eh 0574 2] Flags (decoded below) : 000D
Polarity : 1
Trigger Mode : 3
That means ACPI SCI interrupt(Interrupt : 00000009) works in
level(Trigger Mode : 3), high(Polarity : 1) mode.

And in DSDT table, we have _PRT method to define PCI interrupts, which
eventually goes to:
Name (PRSA, ResourceTemplate ()
{
IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
{3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
})
Name (PRSB, ResourceTemplate ()
{
IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
{3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
})
Name (PRSC, ResourceTemplate ()
{
IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
{3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
})
Name (PRSD, ResourceTemplate ()
{
IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
{3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
})
which means it's also possible to use IRQ9 for PCI interrupt, but works
in Level, ActiveLow mode. So it conflicts with ACPI SCI interrupt source
overriddern.

So implement a quirk to correct interrupt attribute for HyperV SCI
interrupt. Nick reports the proposed patch fixes the regression as "
Applied the above proposed patch with the DMI values substituted.
The tulip driver loaded, and an address was assigned via DHCP.
