Subject: [PATCH 13/14] [media] ddbridge: Kconfig option to control the MSI modparam default
Date: Sun,  9 Jul 2017 21:42:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170709194221.10255-14-d.scheller.oss@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170709194221.10255-1-d.scheller.oss@gmail.com>

From: Daniel Scheller <d.scheller@gmx.net>

It is known that MSI interrupts - while working quite well so far - can
still cause issues on some hardware platforms (causing I2C timeouts due
to unhandled interrupts). The msi variable/option is set to 1 by default.
So, add a Kconfig option prefixed with "EXPERIMENTAL" that will control
the default value of that modparam, defaulting to off for a better
user experience and (guaranteed) stable operation "per default".
