Hrm, that might break legacy setups (no irqdomain support). I'd rather
prefer to explicitly tell the pci core at host registration time.

s/might break/ breaks /     Just validated :)

For my own edification, can you point me to the failing case?

So we really need some other solution and removing the warning is not an
option. If MSI is enabled then we want to get a warning when a PCI
device has no MSI domain associated. Explicitly expressing the PCIE
brigde misfeature of not supporting MSI is way better than silently
returning an error code which is swallowed anyway.

I don't disagree here, though the PCI_MSI_ARCH_FALLBACKS mechanism
makes it more difficult to establish.

Whatever the preferred way is via flags at host probe time or flagging
it post probe I don't care much as long as it is consistent.

Host probe time is going to require some changes in the core PCI api,
as everything that checks for a MSI domain is based on the pci_bus
structure, which is only allocated much later.

I'll have a think.

        M.
