[PATCH v2] ioat: remove chanerr mask setting for IOAT v3.x

From: Dave Jiang
Date: Tue Nov 27 2012 - 17:16:02 EST


The existing code set a value in the PCI_CHANERRMSK_INT register
for a workaround to address a pre-silicon bug on the Intel 5520 IO hub that
has been fixed when the hardware was released. There is no need for this
code.
