As Robin said, a device that is absent from iommu-map will be ignored by
the IOMMU layer, so it depends on the specific IOMMU implementation and
driver. By default the SMMU and virtio-iommu drivers disable bypass, but
I'm not sure about the others. I'll try to find a more accurate title for
this patch

Good idea, I'll replace the pr_err() below with a pr_info(), instead of
simply removing it.

Right, I'll clarify this. It's pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs() that returns an
error if the device is missing from msi-map, so the device driver won't be
able to request MSIs.
