[Fix] Don't use MSI for older r8169 chips. [Test] User confirmed the issue is fixed with the patch applied. [Regression Potential] Low. This reverts affected r8169 device to use INTx, which is more reliable on older hardware. === Original Bug Report === Since changes were introduced with 4.15.0-24 (LP #1752772), the r8169 driver became unusable on x86 machines (16.04 and 18.04 distributions). The device is always in link down state. --- ProblemType: Bug AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version k4.15.0-23-generic.
