Looks good. Thanks! Here is an updated version that should apply
cleanly on top of scsi-next.

LSIs must be ack'ed with an MMIO otherwise they remain asserted
forever. This is controlled by the "clear_isr" flag.

While we set that flag properly when deciding initially whether
to use LSIs or MSIs, we fail to set it if we first chose MSIs,
the test fails, then fallback to LSIs.
