Looking at ahci_init_interrupts() (and probably at commit d684a90d
("ahci: per-port msix support")) it looks like pci_alloc_irq_vectors()
is able to preserve the current AHCI logic?

It would rather called pci_intx_for_msi() here. But because it is
a generic code I am not sure what implications it has for all
drivers out there.
