Sounds simple enough.  Just two small worries though.

* It has an apparent side effect of setting PCI_COMMAND_INVALIDATE, which should be okay in sil3124's case.

* The controller might have some restrictions on configurable cache line size. This is the same for MWI, so I guess this problem is just imaginary.

For the time being, I'll go with pci_set_mwi() but IMHO it would be better to have a pci helper for this purpose - pci_config_cacheline_size() or something.

Thanks.
