If we run the following sequence:

    pci_enable_msix()
    request_irq()

don't we end up with the MSI IRQ unmasked if we're on bare metal but masked
if we're on Xen?  It seems like we'd want it unmasked in both cases, so I
expected your patch to do something to make it unmasked if we're on Xen.
But I don't think it does, does it?

As far as I can tell, this patch only changes the pci_restore_state()
path.  I think that part makes sense.
