I agree that tango_msi_probe() is not a probe function; it is merely a piece of the actual probe function (static with single call site). I split the probe function in two, because it seemed to make sense at the time. Perhaps it's better to inline tango_msi_probe? That would avoid the issues of that function's name and parameters. If you think it's better to keep the two pieces separate, I can rename the MSI part to tango_msi_init() or some such. But I'd like to avoid adding unnecessary fields to the struct. > So I would keep the name and structure similar to these: > > advk_pcie_init_msi_irq_domain() > nwl_pcie_init_msi_irq_domain() > > BTW, those functions use irq_domain_add_linear(), while you are one of > the very few callers of irq_domain_create_linear().

It was a suggestion from Marc Z on 2017-03-23. <QUOTE> + irq_dom = irq_domain_add_linear(NULL, MSI_COUNT, &msi_domain_ops, pcie); Use irq_domain_create_linear, pass the same fwnode. </QUOTE> It seems odd to pass NULL as the first argument.

So the sooner the better. I'm not at the office today, but I'll do it first thing tomorrow. If it works out, great. If I'm too late, well there's 4.14 to look forward to. Regards.
