INTx masking does not work on this device.  To see this, configure
the network device UP on an active network, note that the interrupt
count continues to increment for the device in /proc/interrupts.  Use
setpci to set the PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE bit in the PCI_COMMAND
register.  As expected, the interrupt count ceases to increment.
However, reading the PCI_STATUS_INTERRUPT bit of the PCI_STATUS
register does not indicate that interrupts are pending and clearing
PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE in the PCI_COMMAND register does not allow
the device to continue operation.

This does not affect operation of the host r8169 driver, but it does
prevent the device from being functional when assigned to a VM, such
as with QEMU and VFIO.  The guest driver successfully probes the
device, but there is no traffic.  Mark INTx masking as broken,
allowing the more restrictive APIC masking to be used instead.
