So far, MSIs have been used to signal edge-triggered interrupts, as
a write is a good model for an edge (you can't "unwrite" something).
On the other hand, routing zillions of wires in an SoC because you
need level interrupts is a bit extreme.

People have come up with a variety of schemes to support this, which
involves sending two messages: one to signal the interrupt, and one
to clear it. Since the kernel cannot represent this, we've ended up
with side-band mechanisms that are pretty awful.

Instead, let's acknoledge the requirement, and ensure that, under the
right circumstances, the irq_compose_msg and irq_write_msg can take
as a parameter an array of two messages instead of a pointer to a
single one. We also add some checking that the compose method only
clobbers the second message if the MSI domain has been created with
the MSI_FLAG_LEVEL_CAPABLE flags.
