[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/virtio: fix use_msix get the wrong value

[Zhiyong Yang]

When running l3fwd-power to test virtio rxq interrupt using vfio
pci noiommu mode, startup fails. In the function virtio_read_caps,
the code if (flags & PCI_MSIX_ENABLE) intends to double check
if vfio msix is enabled or not. However, it is indeed not valid.
Come back to l3fwd-power, use_msix is not assigned to the right
value "1". The patch fixes the issue.
