MSI_MESSAGE_CONTROL is 0x52 (MSI capability offset + 2). I'm not sure if we can
do a readl that crosses the alignment boundary in all platforms. The other
option is to readl from "MSI capability offset + 0" and extract the last 16
bits. I felt this is more clear since we are interested only in the
MSI_MESSAGE_CONTROL.

it's used mainly for accessing configuration space header fields. Even the pci
core uses *pci_read_config_word* for accessing such fields.
