Hi Gustavo,

I was reviewing a patch and this raised a question:

-  why pcie-histb.c is not in the list of converted drivers above,
   given that it uses dw_handle_msi_irq() the same way as others
   you converted ?

Is it correct to leave pcie-histb.c as-is ? I do not think it is.

I also would like to get this tested on DRA7 and SPEAR13XX which
are the other host drivers using dw_handle_msi_irq() (even though
in a different way than pcie-histb.c).

The difference here seems to be struct pcie_port->msi_irq usage, that's
extremely confusing how it is used (or not used) in the drivers I
mentioned above.

I have CC'ed the related maintainers I need feedback and this needs
testing; this series code is in my branch:

pci/dwc-msi

Thanks,
Lorenzo
