Hi Dave,

Guilty as charged - I did CC you on the patches though ;)

Sorry - not sure how I missed that one, it even matches
"k.alloc(.*pci_dev" - thanks for fixing it :)

What do you need to determine that the system can't support MSI? Could
you do that logic in arch_msi_check_device()?

Yep, looks good - it matches the logic in arch_teardown_msi_irqs().

cheers
