[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/ixgbe: fix VFIO interrupt mapping in PF

When a PF port is bound to VFIO-PIC, only miscellaneous interrupt
is mapped to VFIO vector 0 in ixgbe_dev_init( ).
In ixgbe_dev_start(), if previous VFIO interrupt mapping set in
ixgbe_dev_init( ) is not cleard, it will fail when calling
rte_intr_enable( ) tries to map Rx queue interrupt to other VFIO
vectors. This patch clears the VFIO interrupt mappings before
setting both miscellaneous and Rx queue interrupt mappings again
to avoid failure.

Fixes: 0a45657a6794 ("pci: rework interrupt handling")
