Niklas Cassel 0917ed8f16 PCI: endpoint: Align pci_epc_get_msix(), pci_epc_ops::get_msix() return value encoding
The kdoc for pci_epc_get_msix() says:
"Invoke to get the number of MSI-X interrupts allocated by the RC"

The kdoc for the callback pci_epc_ops->get_msix() says:
"ops to get the number of MSI-X interrupts allocated by the RC from the
MSI-X capability register"

pci_epc_ops::get_msix() does however return the number of interrupts in the
encoding as defined by the Table Size field. Nowhere in the kdoc does it
say that the returned number of interrupts is in Table Size encoding.

It is very confusing that the API pci_epc_get_msix() and the callback
function pci_epc_ops::get_msix() don't return the same value.

Clean up the API and the callback function to have the same semantics,
i.e. return the number of interrupts, regardless of the internal encoding
of that value.

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 reStructuredText 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.
