That is the consensus opinion.
Currently drivers implement the MSI tests because the core PCI code
hasn't been up to snuff. I (and others) have been discouraging that,
but when a user faces a choice between working and non-working network,
the pragmatic solution wins.
All efforts to get us to the point where we can remove the MSI tests
from drivers are strongly supported...
