So you are saying that despite the current stuff being beyond repair, we
can't provide an alternate working implementation that fits our needs
unless we also port over Altic and Intel, which we don't know and don't
have testing gear, not even within our arch code ?
So you are trying to make sure PowerPC doesn't get MSI support until
next year or what ?
Ben.
