Please match the form and style of previous subject lines (in
particular, omit "msix_setup_msi_descs:").

I agree, this looks like a typo in 71020a3c0dff4, but I might be
missing something, so Thomas should take a look, and I added Jason
since he reviewed it.

Since it was merged by Thomas, I'll let him take care of this, too.
If it *is* a typo, the fix looks like v5.17 material.
