heh, that's me.  habit I guess, just to be sure.

Clemems' "PCI quirk: RS780/RS880: disable MSI completely" patch is the
right approach I think.  Note that it's only devices hung off the int
gfx pci to pci bridge that have broken MSI (gfx and audio).  MSI works
fine on the PCIE slots.  I have a similar patch for rs400 chips on bug
