Subject: drm/nv4c/mc: disable msi
From: Ilia Mirkin <imirkin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 4761703bd04bbdf56396d264903cc5a1fdcb3c01 upstream.
Several users have, over time, reported issues with MSI on these IGPs.
They're old, rarely available, and MSI doesn't provide such huge
advantages on them. Just disable.
