By "point to the actual behaviour", do you mean adding something to
the changelog along the lines of the following?

  If MSI or MSI-X is enabled, the device uses that.  It uses INTx only
  if both MSI and MSI-X are disabled (see PCIe r4.0, sec 7.7.1.2).

I did add that because I think that spec reference is useful.  If you
have something else in mind, maybe an example would help me
understand.

Sorry, I didn't get your point here.  Certainly some code needs to
distinguish between MSI and MSI-X, but I don't think that's the case
here.  I'm not proposing to change Thunderbolt; I do see that it uses
dev->msix_enabled (but not dev->msi_enabled), and it doesn't look like
using pci_dev_msi_enabled() there would be appropriate.

Yeah, I figured there was a danger of that, but I haven't kept up on
exactly which are on the chopping block, so I figured it'd be trivial
to drop anything that turns out to be unnecessary.
