commit 83dbf898a2d45289be875deb580e93050ba67529 upstream.
Masking all unused MSI-X entries is done to ensure that a crash kernel
starts from a clean slate, which correponds to the reset state of the
device as defined in the PCI-E specificion 3.0 and later:
Vector Control for MSI-X Table Entries
--------------------------------------
"00: Mask bit: When this bit is set, the function is prohibited from
sending a message using this MSI-X Table entry.
...
This bit’s state after reset is 1 (entry is masked)."
A Marvell NVME device fails to deliver MSI interrupts after trying to
enable MSI-X interrupts due to that masking. It seems to take the MSI-X
mask bits into account even when MSI-X is disabled.
While not specification compliant, this can be cured by moving the masking
into the success path, so that the MSI-X table entries stay in device reset
state when the MSI-X setup fails.
[ tglx: Move it into the success path, add comment and amend changelog ]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
