Andi, is the tg3 NIC that didn't work in a Supermicro system
on PCI-X or PCI Express?

IIRC, Andi was talking about a Supermicro machine with a ServerWorks
HT2000 chipset. We have such a machine here. Its MSI is disabled in the
Hyper-transport mapping. But, MSI works once the HT capability is
enabled (and my quirk will detect it right).
For such machines, if people really want MSI, we'll need to enable the
HT cap in my quirk. But, as long as they just want IRQ to work,
detecting whether the HT cap is enabled or not should be enough.

If it works reliably, we should definitely turn it on.
