I think you can use this:

So do I. However I'm also using Fedora 23 and this means I have to
recompile the kernel, since they build it with MSI enabled.
I think we should fix it, either by disabling in run time, or making it
work.

Performance-wise, I found it "surprising" that one can't have multiple
MSIs with separate hw vector for each.
