In the past I was told by Alex that using the capability chain
extensions to add some new capabilities was a better approach:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/6/751

I did that kind of exercise in
[PATCH v9 7/7] vfio/type1: return MSI geometry through
VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO capability chains

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2016-May/016892.html

The patch was not used eventually but maybe that can help.

Thanks

Eric
