Given that the PCI driver handles controllers that only work with
hardware sequencing, we can remove the dangerous tag.
This patch is the second part of Mika's suggestion [1].
The first part was accepted in [2].

Hi,

One nit: In $subject please use PCI instead of pci.

Please don't send cover letters for single patches, if there is anything
that needs saying put it in the changelog of the patch or after the ---
if it's administrative stuff.  This reduces mail volume and ensures that 
any important information is recorded in the changelog rather than being
lost.

      commit: 7db738b5fea4533fa217dfb05c506c15bd0964d9

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
