 New Revision: 232091
 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/232091
 
 Log:
   Forced commit to denote that the commit message of r231621 should have read:
   
   - As it turns out, MSI-X is broken for at least LSI SAS1068E when passed
     through by VMware so blacklist their PCI-PCI bridge for MSI/MSI-X here.
     Note that besides currently there not being a quirk type that disables
     MSI-X only and there's no evidence that MSI doesn't work with the VMware
     pass-through, it's really questionable whether MSI generally works in
     that setup as VMware only mention three know working devices [1, p. 4].
     Also not that this quirk entry currently doesn't affect the devices
     emulated by VMware in any way as these don't claim support MSI/MSI-X to
     begin with. [2]
     While at it, make the PCI quirk table const and static.
   - Remove some duplicated empty lines.
   - Use DEVMETHOD_END.
