    xen/vpci: Improve code generation in mask_write()
    
    The use of __clear_bit() forces dmask to be spilled to the stack, and
    interferes with the compiler heuristcs for some upcoming improvements to the
    ffs() code generation.
    
    First, shrink dmask to just the active vectors by making out the upper bits.
    This replaces the "i < msi->vectors" part of the loop condition.
    
    Next, use a simple while() loop with "clear bottom bit" expressed in plane 
C,
    which affords the optimiser a far better understanding of what the loop is
    doing.
