Okay, so this patch should be extended with a check for pci_msi_enabled() to see if the user explicitly want legacy IRQs. > BTW, regarding to Baruch's comments, it seems that all the (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PCI_MSI) check in > the dwc host drivers are not required anymore, since the depends on PCI_MSI_IRQ_DOMAIN, right? That's correct. This is mostly a historical artifact from the time when we were able to build without MSI support. Those checks could be cleaned up now that we depend on the MSI options.
