Good catch, but I wonder why you don't use the existing
helper instead. Something like this (untested):

diff --git a/drivers/base/platform-msi.c b/drivers/base/platform-msi.c
index 60d6cc618f1c..87808ac08bfb 100644
--- a/drivers/base/platform-msi.c
+++ b/drivers/base/platform-msi.c
@@ -375,6 +375,8 @@ void platform_msi_domain_free(struct irq_domain *domain, unsigned int virq,
 
 		irq_domain_free_irqs_common(domain, desc->irq, 1);
 	}
+
+	platform_msi_free_descs(data->dev, virq, nvec);
 }

Thanks,
