pci_alloc_msi is always called, is this bad?

I was looking at the recent thread on -stable about mfi(4) and I noted
that it appears, if I'm not mistaken, mfi_pci.c::pci_alloc_msi() is
*always* invoked regardless of the mfi_msi tuneable. We just ignore the
allocated MSI by not setting sc->mfi_irq_rid. Is that harmful?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
240 /* Allocate IRQ resource. */
241 sc->mfi_irq_rid = 0;
242 count = 1;
243 if (mfi_msi && pci_alloc_msi(sc->mfi_dev, &count) == 0) {
244 device_printf(sc->mfi_dev, "Using MSI\n");
245 sc->mfi_irq_rid = 1;
246 }
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would have thought that this would be more correct, avoid calling
pci_alloc_msi() if mfi_msi isn't set in the first place.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
sc->mfi_irq_ird = 0;
count = 1;
ret = 0
if(mfi_msi)
ret = pci_alloc_msi(sc->mfi_dev, &count);
if (!ret) {
device_printf(sc->mfi_dev, "Using MSI\n");
sc->mfi_irq_rid = 1;
}
