Using INTx interrupt, #Rx queues: 1.

It occurs when populate_msi_sysfs fails, which in turn causes free_msi_irqs to
be called.  Because populate_msi_sysfs fails, we never registered any of the
msi irq sysfs objects, but free_msi_irqs still calls kobject_del and kobject_put
on each of them, which gets flagged in the above stack trace.

The fix is pretty straightforward.  We can key of the parent pointer in the
kobject.  It is only set if the kobject_init_and_add succededs in
populate_msi_sysfs.  If anything fails there, each kobject has its parent reset
to NULL
