Indeed. Thanks for catching this.

The HW should support MSI, but we currently don't have a use case for
it so it hasn't been tested and therefore we are okay with disabling
it.

For future knowledge, how can just MSI-X be disabled?
I see that in pcie_port_enable_irq_vec(), the pcieport driver calls
pci_alloc_irq_vectors() with PCI_IRQ_MSIX | PCI_IRQ_MSI. And
internally, both __pci_enable_msix_range() and __pci_enable_msi_range()
use pci_msi_supported() which doesn't differentiate between MSI and
MSI-x.
