[PATCH 2.6.32 v2] MCP55 SATA2 conditional MSI support for sata_nv

From: Tony Vroon
Date: Wed Aug 05 2009 - 15:32:29 EST


The nVidia MCP55 SATA2 controller quite happily supports MSI.
This adds an option to use it. It is disabled by default and
will only be honoured on the specific controller I tested.
This was suggested in 2007 back when the driver was less mature,
perhaps now is a better time for it.
