Keeping interrupts disabled post PCI initialization would be nice, but
that requires feeding the whole init machinery through a shredder and
collecting the bits and pieces.

The IOMMU IRQ remapping part _is_ initialized early and _before_
interrupts are enabled.

But that does not solve the problem either simply because then the IOMMU
will catch the rogue MSIs and you get an interrupt storm on the IOMMU
error interrupt.

This one is not going to be turned off because the IOMMU error interrupt
handler will handle each of them and tell the core code that everything
is under control.

As I explained several times now, the only way to shut this up reliably
is at the source. Curing the symptom is almost never a good solution.

Thanks,
