But then this still introduces a problem: arch_teardown_msi_irq() expects to find the msi_chip in the chip_data field, which is okay for all ARM PCI host drivers, but not for other arch MSI chips. You fix this by completely removing arch_teardown_msi_irq() at the end of the series, but this still has the potential to introduce issues for other arches than ARM within the series. So this patch should include a change to replace the line struct msi_chip *chip = irq_get_chip_data(irq); with something that doesn't rely on the msi_chip being in the irq chip_data field.
