Okay I see your point, so the cleanup done this way is okay.

But then this still introduces a problem: arch_teardown_msi_irq()
expects to find the msi_chip in the chip_data field, which is okay for
all ARM PCI host drivers, but not for other arch MSI chips.

You fix this by completely removing arch_teardown_msi_irq() at the end
of the series, but this still has the potential to introduce issues for
other arches than ARM within the series. So this patch should include a
change to replace the line

struct msi_chip *chip = irq_get_chip_data(irq);

with something that doesn't rely on the msi_chip being in the irq
chip_data field.

Lucas
