Sorry, I found Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt minutes after
sending the patch.  We need to get it to the Linus' tree first, then to
the stable tree.  I hope it won't take long.

To preempt possible questions: MSI is a nice thing, but we cannot enable
it without changing the interrupt handler.  If we do it, we break MSI
capable hardware.
