Rusty, thank you for reporting it.
But I think this fix is not correct.

It looks like a bug in Michael's patch:
  [PATCH for-2.6.35] virtio-pci: disable msi at startup

The patch includes a change as following:

According to the old commit f5f2b13129a6541debf8851bae843cbbf48298b7,
pci_msi_off() was designed to be available even when msi support is not
compiled in.  So I think this change will make something wrong.

Michael, could you check your patch?


Thanks,
H.Seto
