No. I made the minor changelog edits you suggested and the result is on my pci/msi-v7 branch. But I still have these open issues: - The last thing I heard from Eric was that "not disabling MSI/MSI-X at shutdown is the wrong fix, and someone needs to fix a buggy driver." I want to hear Eric say "OK, we need to leave MSI/MSI-X enabled at shutdown for this case." - One changelog says "Stop disabling MSIs at shutdown to avoid conflicting with drivers." But I don't know what the conflict is. - The bugzilla has no dmesg log or detailed analysis. Fam said the scenario I came up with (http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150416194245.GB20701@xxxxxxxxxx) was fairly close, but it took me a lot of work to derive that. Fixing any errors in it and putting it in the bugzilla would be a big step. The bugzilla should have the raw data and the analysis, so someone else can validate the analysis and conclude that this patch is a reasonable fix for it. That's currently impossible because the bugzilla really only contains the fix as a fait accompli.
