You passed in dev here, you don't need to use iov->self, right?

OK, I think I get it -- you've basically written an interrupt handler
for the driver to call from its interrupt handler. Am I right in
thinking that the reason the driver needs to do the interrupt handler
here is because we don't currently have an interface that looks like:

int pci_get_msix_interrupt(struct pci_dev *dev, unsigned vector);

? If so, we should probably add it; I want it for my MSI-X rewrite
anyway.

Will do.

Right, we really need this function. But I guess we still have to keep the
handler in case the PF only has MSI, right?

Thanks,
