Ugh, that's unfortunate, since there are also plenty of genuine error 
conditions encapsulated in there which we *would* want to report as such 
(but still then fall back to wired IRQs if possible). Is the return 
value sufficient to differentiate the "there is no MSI parent" and 
"there are MSIs but something went wrong" cases, or is it more 
complicated than that?
