VMD MSI remapping is disabled by default for all the CPUs with 28c0 VMD
device. Initially MSI remapping was disabled for 28c0 to improve
performance since VMD had only 64 MSIx vectors. Newer CPU with more VMD
vectors don't see the performance impact anymore. Keep MSI remapping
enabled when vector count is more than active CPU in the system.
Note, pci_msix_vec_count() failure is translated to ENODEV per typical
expectations that drivers may return ENODEV when some driver-known
fundamental detail of the device is missing.
