mfd: intel-lpss: Try to enable Memory-Write-Invalidate
Enable MWI mechanism if PCI bus master supports it. It might be potential benefit in some cases. Documentation [1] says that standard Memory Write might supply more current data than in the CPU modified cache line and "trashing a line in the cache may trash some data that is more current that in the memory line". This allows to avoid potential retries and other performance degradation issues on the bus. [1] PCI System Architecture, 4th edition, ISBN: 0-201-30974-2, pp.117-119.
