So, when by default pci_msi_enable = 1 and the MSI controller is not discovered, we get stack trace like below.

But I think Bjorn's suggestion to depend on PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_MSI may be better idea. In that case, we need to set bridge->msi_domain to true in pci_create_root_bus(). Let me know what do you prefer or if I am completely missing something here. Thanks, Sunil
