When debugging an issue where I was asking the PCI machinery to enable a
set of MSI-X vectors, without falling back on MSI, I ran across a
behaviour which seems odd. The pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity() will
always return -ENOSPC on failure, when allocating MSI-X vectors only,
whereas with MSI fallback it will forward any error returned by
__pci_enable_msi_range(). This is a confusing behaviour, so have the
pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity() forward the error code from
__pci_enable_msix_range() when appropriate.
