Side note: why is it doing that " > 1" check, when any value _other_
than 1 is wrong?

Also, to match the non-MSI implementation, wouldn't it be nicer to
just write it that same way (and also verify "dev->irq"):

if (flags & PCI_IRQ_LEGACY) {
if (min_vecs == 1 && dev->irq)
return 1;
}
return -ENOSPC;

(the exact error value probably doesn't matter in practice, but the
CONFIG_MSI case returns ENOSPC by default and that's what
Documentation/PCI/MSI-HOWTO.txt says too).

Hmm?
