Resolved Issues

CR 520833: Clock-to-out delay required on cfg_interrupt_n for simulation
(Xilinx Answer 32865)

CR #522729: Designs which use Multi-Vector MSI should check the number of allocated vectors before generating an MSI interrupt; this does not apply to endpoints and was removed from the v1.1 release notes. It is listed in this solution so users know why it was removed.

CR #522731: Designs which use the cfg_pm_wake_n input to generate a PME event should implement a timeout counter.
