    Yeah, this can be deleted. Care to make a patch for just this?

    These changes are for when drivers want to start taking advantage of
    some MSI features. I've heard rumors that those drivers will be public
    soon, but haven't seen them yet :(

    This is needed for some upcoming PCI Express changes, and should not be
    dropped. I've seen the code that needs this, but it is still under
    development and isn't ready for mainline yet.

    These changes are needed by upcoming video driver changes.
