igb: Disable threaded IRQ for igb_msix_other

During testing of SR-IOV, Red Hat QE encountered an issue where the
ip link up command intermittently fails for the igbvf interfaces when
using the PREEMPT_RT variant. Investigation revealed that
e1000_write_posted_mbx returns an error due to the lack of an ACK
from e1000_poll_for_ack.

The underlying issue arises from the fact that IRQs are threaded by
default under PREEMPT_RT. While the exact hardware details are not
available, it appears that the IRQ handled by igb_msix_other must
be processed before e1000_poll_for_ack times out. However,
e1000_write_posted_mbx is called with preemption disabled, leading
to a scenario where the IRQ is serviced only after the failure of
e1000_write_posted_mbx.

To resolve this, we set IRQF_NO_THREAD for the affected interrupt,
ensuring that the kernel handles it immediately, thereby preventing
the aforementioned error.

Reproducer:

    #!/bin/bash

    # echo 2 > /sys/class/net/ens14f0/device/sriov_numvfs
    ipaddr_vlan=3
    nic_test=ens14f0
    vf=${nic_test}v0

    while true; do
	    ip link set ${nic_test} mtu 1500
	    ip link set ${vf} mtu 1500
	    ip link set $vf up
	    ip link set ${nic_test} vf 0 vlan ${ipaddr_vlan}
	    ip addr add 172.30.${ipaddr_vlan}.1/24 dev ${vf}
	    ip addr add 2021:db8:${ipaddr_vlan}::1/64 dev ${vf}
	    if ! ip link show $vf | grep 'state UP'; then
		    echo 'Error found'
		    break
	    fi
	    ip link set $vf down
    done
