This is not ok, what this does is that it relies on a particular
implementation of the MSI controller and directly accesses its
registers.
Instead, it should reference only the msi irq domain and let the
driver for the MSI controller access the registers. Otherwise this
code has to be rewritten once the same PCI host code appears in
a machine that has a real GICv2m or GICv3.
