I'm happy to revert it from pci/msi, but I think Thomas has already pulled
it into his branch, so he'd have to drop it, too.

Thomas, let me know if you want to do that.  I suppose we could add a new
patch to add it back, but that would leave bisection broken for the
interval between c167caf8d174 and the patch that adds it back.
