But bus mastering is not about MSIs. I *think* it's still OK, but you need to document that in the commit log too.

Actually, why the commit which added this code turns on bus mastering?

Forget about this line, I wasn't woken enough. Of course, MSI (writes) to bus need bus mastering.

In any case, I'm still not sure what happens to devices which do not support MSI if we enable mastering on them?
