Before the referenced commit, when we requested a certain number of interrupts, if we could not meet the requirements, the number of interrupts supported by the hardware would be returned. But after the referenced commit, if the hardware failed to meet the requirements, the error of invalid argument would be directly returned, which caused a regression in the nfp driver preventing probing to complete.

Thomas, is this an expected side effect?
The commit message of bab65e48cb06 ("PCI/MSI: Sanitize MSI-X checks") makes it sound like only a harmless refactoring was intended.
