Comment 7 Richard A Lary 2009-09-18 19:17:47 UTC 
Verified this patch now allows selection of MSI or MSI-X interrupts.  It was also expected that the patch would make MSI-X interrupts the default to satisfy reqirement in comment 3 bug #517922.

QLogic will address requirement for MSI-X as default interrupt type in a new bugzilla.
