[PATCH] x86: keep chip_data in create_irq_nr

[Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>]

Brodon found:
race happened when two drivers were setting up MSI-X at the same
time via pci_enable_msix(). See this dmesg excerpt:

As you can see igb and ixgbe are both alternating on create_irq_nr()
via pci_enable_msix() in their probe function.

ixgbe: While looping through irq_desc_ptrs[] via create_irq_nr() ixgbe
choses irq_desc_ptrs[102] and exits the loop, drops vector_lock and
calls dynamic_irq_init. Then it sets irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data =
NULL via dynamic_irq_init().

igb: Grabs the vector_lock now and starts looping over irq_desc_ptrs[]
via create_irq_nr(). It gets to irq_desc_ptrs[102] and does this:

	cfg_new = irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data;
	if (cfg_new->vector != 0)
		continue;

This hits the NULL deref.

so let remove the save and restore code.

just don't clear it in that path
