These are expected, harmless error messages.  Chuck Ebbert
(wisely, IMHO) disabled MSI by default (as you aptly noted from the
changelog), but your driver was written to use MSI by default, if
possible. It tries, fails, falls back to IRQ, and you get the error
spew.

You can explicitly set the pci=msi boot option to override Chuck's
default.
