[PATCH 2/2] PCI: generic: add description of property "interrupt-skip-mask"

Interrupt Pin register is read-only and optional. Some pci devices may use
msi/msix but leave the value of Interrupt Pin non-zero. In this case, the
driver will print information as below:
pci 0000:40:00.0: of_irq_parse_pci() failed with rc=-22

It's easily lead to misinterpret.
