There may be setups, where legacy interrupts are not available. This is the caese, e.g., when Linux runs as guest (aka. non-root cell) of the partitioning hypervisor Jailhouse. There, only MSI(-X) interrupts are available for guests. But the 8250_pci driver currently only supports legacy ints. So let's enable MSI(-X) interrupts. Nevertheless, this needs to handled with care: while many 8250 devices actually claim to support MSI(-X) interrupts it should not be enabled be default. I had at least one device in my hands with broken MSI implementation. So better introduce a whitelist with devices that are known to support MSI(-X) interrupts. I tested all devices mentioned in the patch.

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.
