Per Megha's follow-up can you send the details about that other device
and help clear a path for a device-specific MSI addr/data table
format. Ever since HMM I've been sensitive, perhaps overly-sensitive,
to claims about future upstream users. The fact that you have an
additional use case is golden for pushing this into a common area and
validating the scope of the proposed API.

I think I said it at plumbers, but yes, we are interested in this, and
would like dynamic MSI-like interrupts available to the driver (what
Intel calls IMS)


So basically you are looking for a way to dynamically allocate the
platform-msi interrupts, correct?

The basic high level interface here seems fine, which is bascially a
way for a driver to grab a bunch of platform-msi interrupts for its
own use

ok!
Since I don't have access to any of the platform-msi devices, it is hard for
me to test this code for other drivers expect idxd for now.
Once I submit the next round of patches, after addressing all the comments,
would it be possible for you to test this code for any of your devices?

Possibly, need to find time

Sure, thanks!
