Eric, what do you think of this? You had many comments on previous
versions.

Minor comment on a comment below.

This comment doesn't really match what the patch does. The patch merely
does "Do not disable MSI on shutdown." It doesn't "disable bus master
instead."

Bus master may be disabled elsewhere, but that is independent of the
PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_MSI_SHUTDOWN flag.
