SubjectRe: [PATCH] PCI: apple: Initialize pcie->nvecs before using it
Hello,

> apple_pcie_setup_port computes ilog2(pcie->nvecs) to setup the number of
> MSIs available for each port. It is however called before apple_msi_init
> which actually initializes pcie->nvecs.
> Luckily, pcie->nvecs is part of kzalloc-ed structure and thus
> initialized as zero. ilog2(0) happens to be 0xffffffff which then just
> configures more MSIs in hardware than we actually have. This doesn't
> break anything because we never hand out those vectors.
> Let's swap the order of the two calls so that we use the correctly
> initialized value.

Applied to controller/apple, thank you!
