PCI/MSI: Add pci_enable_msi() documentation back

Browse Source 
We deprecated pci_enable_msi() in 302a2523c2 ("PCI/MSI: Add
pci_enable_msi_range() and pci_enable_msix_range()").

But we changed our minds after noticing that:

  - pci_enable_msi() doesn't have confusing return values like
    pci_enable_msi_block() and pci_enable_msix() did, and

  - pci_enable_msi() has a hundred or so callers that we don't want to
    change.

This adds back the pci_enable_msi() documentation.

4.2.1 pci_enable_msi
int pci_enable_msi(struct pci_dev *dev)
A successful call allocates ONE interrupt to the device, regardless
of how many MSIs the device supports. The device is switched from
pin-based interrupt mode to MSI mode. The dev->irq number is changed
to a new number which represents the message signaled interrupt;
consequently, this function should be called before the driver calls
request_irq(), because an MSI is delivered via a vector that is
different from the vector of a pin-based interrupt.

Note, unlike pci_enable_msi() function, which could be also used to

does).

Failure to do so results in a BUG_ON(), leaving the device with
