I agree on this. Actually the map I drew incorrectly above but wanted
to demonstrate the same. It was a child-parent relationship for MSI
and its members and similarly for MSIX as well.

I believe count can be one as well, especially for ERR/REQ as you
mentioned above.I think we can not rely on the count > 1. Now, this is
blocking and we are not left with options unless we consider adding
more enums in flags in vfio_irq_info to tell userspace that particular
index is wired, MSI, MSIX etc. for the platform device.
What do you think?

Yes, we can use similar kinds of allocations.
