[PATCH 2/8] UBUNTU: SAUCE: ath9k: add a quirk to set use_msi automatically

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1727228

Some platform(BIOS) blocks legacy interrupts (INTx), and only allows MSI
for WLAN device. So adding a quirk to list those machines and set
use_msi automatically.
Adding Dell Inspiron 24-3460 to the quirk.
