Yup, good point.

Unfortunately, there is a metric ton of crap that fits in that
description:
01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries Device 4433 (rev 07)
Subsystem: Apple Inc. Device 4387
Device tree node:
/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/pcie@690000000/pci@0,0/wifi@0,0
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 97, IOMMU group 4
Memory at 6c1400000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Memory at 6c0000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
Capabilities: [48] Power Management version 3
Capabilities: [58] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/32 Maskable- 64bit+
... and no MSI-X in sight. Pass this to a VM, and you'll see exactly
what is described here. And that's not old stuff either. This is brand
new HW.
Do we need to care? I don't think so.
