ESXi on ARM 2.0 - failed to allocate MSI-X interrupts #38

ESXi on ARM 2.0 does not have the same USB NIC driver that 1.15 does, as such there are drivers installed for Intel and Broadcom based network adapters. When attempting to use a supported Intel i210, the following behavior is witnessed in vmkernel.log:

WARNING: VMK_PCI: 1103: device 000:001:00.0 failed to allocate 3 MSIX vectors

It appears that there is a patch available according to this link: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-pci/patch/[email protected]/#26022474

Would it be possible to implement this in an update? I'm sure VMware will put out an update to 2.0 that will reincorporate the USB NIC driver, but it would be cool to use PCI-e network devices in the interim.
