[PATCH 2.6.32 v3] Conditional MSI support for sata_nv

From: Tony Vroon <hidden>
Date: 2009-08-05 23:50:12
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: libata subsystem (serial and parallel ata drivers), the rest · Maintainers: Damien Le Moal, Niklas Cassel, Linus Torvalds

At least the nVidia MCP55 controller quite happily supports MSI.
This adds an option to use it. It is disabled by default.
As per feedback by Robert Hancock, it will honour the user 
request as the kernel will not enable MSI where the controller 
or the specific system configuration do not support it.
