As far as I understand, it *is* the case, and largely the reason we're
here in the first place. "MSI remapping" is an x86-specific term for the
part of their IOMMU which intercepts writes to the architectural MSI
region and can "remap" a given device's interrupts to different targets
on the CPU side - i.e. more or less the same thing the ITS does with the
device ID data which your implementation apparently needs this
address-matching widget to append to the write. If your ITS couldn't
actually distinguish between requesters (like a GICv2m) we'd have a
*much* bigger problem.
