This isn't strictly required by the spec, since we do change Multiple
Message Enable, and hardware is allowed to change the message numbers when
we do that.  But I agree it is quite unlikely that the message numbers will
change since we're allocating enough vectors to accommodate all of them.

I'll post a v5 series that is basically a refinement of your v3.
