bits
System software can modify bits in this register, but the device is prohibited from
doing so. If the device writes the same message multiple times, only one of those
doing so. If the device writes the same message multiple times, only one of those
messages is guaranteed to be serviced. If all of them must be serviced, the device
must not generate the same message again until the driver services the earlier one.

7 RO 0b
64 Bit Capable (64BCAP):
Hardwired to 0 to indicate that the function
does not implement the upper 32 bits of the
Message address register and is incapable of
generating a 64-bit memory address.
This may need to change in future
implementations when addressable system
memory exceeds the 32b/4GB limit.

6:4 RW 000b
Multiple Message Enable (MME):
System software programs this field to
indicate the actual number of messages
allocated to this device. This number will be
equal to or less than the number actually
requested.
The encoding is the same as for the MMC field
below.
