This patchset adds msi-x support to the alx driver. It is a preparatory
series for multi queue support, which I am currently working on. As there
is no advantage over msi interrupts without multi queue support, msi-x
interrupts are disabled by default. In order to test for regressions, a
new module parameter is added to enable msi-x interrupts.

Based on information of the downstream driver at github.com/qca/alx

Tobias Regnery (4):
  alx: refactor msi enablement and disablement
  alx: factor out part of the interrupt handler
  alx: add msi-x support
  alx: add module parameter to enable msi-x support
