Unfortunately, no.. in fact the situation on my setup is even worse with
CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS enabled: Not only does MSI still not function, but
now INTx interrupts are somehow broken as well - no interrupts are
received. The IRQ information shown in /proc/interrupts is correct, but
the count remains stubbornly at 0.
So given that outcome, I don't think we should add this as a hard
dependency until we can figure out what is going on, as it seems to
regress working setups.
