[PATCH 37/37] PCI/MSI: Only check is_msi_managed in pcim_setup_msi_release()

The function pcim_enable_device() sets the is_managed flag, which
causes the device's IRQ vectors to be automatically managed and released
by the devres framework. If a driver subsequently calls
pci_free_irq_vectors() manually, it can lead to a double-free of the
interrupt resources.
Analysis reveals most PCI drivers call pci_free_irq_vectors()
while also using pcim_enable_device(), making them susceptible to this
double-free issue. In contrast, 35 drivers follow the pattern of
relying on devres to handle the cleanup.
To address this inconsistency and enforce explicit, driver-managed
control of IRQ vectors, this patch removes the pci_is_managed() check
from pcim_setup_msi_release() and let devres help cleanup if is_msi_managed
is true. This change ensures that interrupt vectors are not automatically
freed by the devres machinery when pcim_enable_device() is used, placing
the responsibility for their release squarely on the driver logic via
pci_free_irq_vectors(). If the driver need devres to help cleanup, newly added
pcim_alloc_irq_vectors() and pcim_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity() helpers could be used.
