Not if the motherboard MSI implementation is flakey, like we've seen
in the past with other PCIe bridges and their interaction with root
controllers. I've actually seen this with some commercial customers
using the 7164. With this new patch MSI gets enabled, the 'solution'
doesn't work properly and now we expect users to compile their own
kernels, just to get back to a previously working solution.

I'm happy to take the patch if the option can be disabled.
