[SCSI] lpfc: restore MSI-X/MSI support

A Gentoo bug report [1] showed that as of 2.6.31 lpfc only uses INTx interrupts.
This patch restores lpfc's ability to support MSI-X/MSI interrupts that the
"Addition of SLI4 Interface - Base Support" patch [2] broke.
It reestablishes MSI-X as the default interrupt method and in case MSI-X is not
supported lpfc_sli{4,}_enable_intr fallbacks to MSI and then to INTx.

[James Smart:
Background:
Nothing Broke. This was intended.

We had originally enabled MSI-X by default, but in qualification within the
last 12 months, we encountered a major catch-22:

There were at least 4 platforms, from 2 major OEMs, that :
- Say they support MSI-X - platform routines work and act as if they do.
- We enable it, generate a test interrupt to check they really do deliver it,
and it works.
- But shortly after attachment, the system hangs or loses interrupts,
resulting in a bad system behavior.

Given the distro's picking up the 2.6.32 kernel, we had to stick with a
default of MSI-X off, with user-enabled MSI-X as these platforms couldn't get
fixed.

However, we're also now encountering platforms that require MSI-X and never
INTx, so we must change. It's desired also for also for performance reasons.

So - now (2.6.33) is the right time to re-enable MSI-X by default.
