Hi Bjorn,

You are right, having

        if ((new == toggle) || PCI_VERSION_PRIOR_TO_23) /* test OK or PCI prior to r2.3 */
		        return 0;
        return 1;

would be incorrect, as if new != toggle then PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE is not writable
so INTx masking support should be considered broken (regardless of PCI version).
