Makes sense. It probably does mean we should a BUG_ON for the case
where IRQ remapping *is* enabled but any device is found which isn't
behind it. But that's OK.

HPET-MSI should work fine. Like the IOAPIC, it's just a child of the
*actual* MSI domain. The address/data in the MSI message are completely
opaque to it, and if the parent domain happens to put meaningful
information into bits 11-5 of the MSI address, the HPET won't even
notice.
The HPET's Tn_FSB_INT_ADDR register does have a full 32 bits of the MSI
address; it's not doing bit-swizzling like the IOAPIC does, which might
potentially *not* have been able to set certain bits in the MSI.
