rapidio/tsi721: fix bug in MSI interrupt handling



commit 1ccc819d upstream.

Fix bug in MSI interrupt handling which causes loss of event
notifications.

Typical indication of lost MSI interrupts are stalled message and
doorbell transfers between RapidIO endpoints.  To avoid loss of MSI
interrupts all interrupts from the device must be disabled on entering
the interrupt handler routine and re-enabled when exiting it.
Re-enabling device interrupts will trigger new MSI message(s) if Tsi721
registered new events since entering interrupt handler routine.

This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.2.
