You say "neither MSI nor MSI-X can work fine", which I take to mean
"both MSI and MSI-X do not work".

But then you say this is a workaround to allow MSI-X to work.

So what I think you mean is, the erratum prevents both MSI and MSI-X
from working. This is a workaround that allows MSI-X to work, and in addition
the patch prevents MSI from being used on chips with the erratum -
because there is no workaround for MSI.

Seeing as this patch is enabling a workaround for MSI-X you've obviously
tested MSI-X, so you should remove the two lines above.

This is not a workaround. This is a check to prevent MSI from being used
on buggy chipsets.

I take it you're happy preventing MSI for all devices even if only a
single chip in the machine has the erratum? In practice you probably
have all or none with the erratum right?

I would suggest brackets on an if with such a large body, even though it
is OK as it is.

This is the workaround. The comment here should say, "this only works
for MSI-X, we prevent MSI in on buggy chips in fsl_msi_check_device()".

You don't need the put here, you know it's NULL (you just checked).

I don't think you need errata here, "rc" would be fine.

cheers
