2014-02-26ccw: Fix requirements for processing adapter interrupts.rusty
We currently mandate that the driver clears the summary indicator before processing the queue indicator; this is bogus, as the requirement for interrupt avoidance is rather that the driver unsets the summary indicator before before it stops looking at the queue indicator. In fact, the best way to get a race-free implementation of the interrupt handler is to process the queue indicators twice; let's add a recommondation to do that.

2014-02-26Feedback: PCI: Separate explanatory and normative text.rusty
Rather than treat selectors 0 and 1 as special, the wording for features is made more general (though still the same effect). I split the interrupt handler into a separate subsection: it was misleading because it didn't handle configuration interrupts until the next section. It's also non-normative.
