I've surely forgotten these details, I can't advise if duplicate
irq_domains are very bad.

A single domain per parent irq_domain does seem more elegant, but I'm
not sure it is worth the extra work to do it?

In any event the API seems cleaner if it is all contained in the
platform_msi and strongly connected to the driver, not spread to the
iommu as well. If it had to create single dev-msi domain per parent
irq_domain then it certainly could be done in a few ways.
