You'd still need an irq domain, it just comes from
pci_subdevice_msi_create_irq_domain() instead of internal to this
driver.

Yes, exactly. This new pci_subdevice_msi_create_irq_domain() creates
*proper* fully functional interrupts, no need for any IRQ handler in
this driver.

It should be fine with this patch series, consult with Megha how
virtualization is working with IDXD/etc
