Something along these lines:

	DECLARE_BITMAP(enabled, 256);

	unsigned int pos = 0;

	while ((pos = find_next_bit(enabled, 256, pos)) < 256) {
		int offset = (pos / 32) * 4;
		u32 status = readl_relaxed(status + offset);
		/* Handle each pos set in status */
		pos = round_up(pos, 32);
	}

You mentioned a bug in my code (due to the platform endianness)
when passing the result of readl_relaxed to the bitops routine...
How is one supposed to iterate over status?

I'm not yet seeing this endianness issue, since (status & BIT(i))
provides the status of MSI_i, irrespective of endianness.

Although I see that arch/arm/include/asm/bitops.h declares
BE and LE variants... I'm confused.
