Thanks for doing the write-up. Maybe worth adding that drivers that
use dev->irq while having enabled MSI will break (INTx will be
disabled while MSI is enabled). That should give people a clue about
what to fix when they bisect the problem to this patch.

Also, a link to the discussion that lead to this patch would be useful
to give some context.

No need to respin this for now, let's give it a shake after 5.14.

Thanks,

	M.
