This behavior is indeed mandated on ARM - where MSI are translated by
the smmu - to allow safe device assignment if there is no MSI domain,
ie. in this situation there is no risk an assigned device writes into an
MSI doorbell.

As the function is not implemented at all in your case, personally I
would rather be defensive though and return false. You were not able to
check the capability.

Thanks
