The current MSI-HOWTO.txt says that device drivers should not request the
memory space that contains MSI-X tables. This is because the original
MSI-X implementation did a request_mem_region() on this space, but that
code was removed long ago (in the pre-git era, in fact). Years after the
code was changed, we might as well clean up the documention to avoid a
confusing mention of requesting regions: drivers using MSI-X can just use
pci_request_regions() just like any other driver, and so there's no need
for MSI-HOWTO.txt to talk about this at all.

The MSI vector reservation system described in Documentation/MSI-HOWTO.txt
was removed by Eric in 92db6d10bc1bc43330a4c540fa5b64c83d9d865f. Remove
the references to it in the documentation.
While we're here ยง 5.5.1 refers to x86 hardware requirements, so make that
clear.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
