2.6.25-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

From: PJ Waskiewicz <peter.p.waskiewicz.jr@intel.com>

commit 9d9ad4b51d2b29b5bbeb4011f5e76f7538119cf9 upstream

This bug was introduced in the 2.6.24 i386/x86_64 tree merge, where
MSI-X vector allocation will eventually fail.  The cause is the new
bit array tracking used vectors is not getting cleared properly on
IRQ destruction on the 32-bit APIC code.

This can be seen easily using the ixgbe 10 GbE driver on multi-core
systems by simply loading and unloading the driver a few times.
Depending on the number of available vectors on the host system, the
MSI-X allocation will eventually fail, and the driver will only be
able to use legacy interrupts.
