Right, that's the piece I was missing, thanks for that.

However, that doesn't really address the issue when the host bridge and
the MSI widget are two separate entities, oblivious of each other (which
is a pretty common thing on the ARM side).

In this configuration, you can't really decide whether you have a MSI
domain in the host bridge driver (the association is done in the code
PCI code, after you have registered it with the core code), and by the
time you get a pointer to the bus, the endpoints have already been 
probed.

The following patch makes it work for me (GICv3 guest without an ITS)by
checking for the presence of an MSI domain at the point where we 
actually
perform this association, and before starting to scan for endpoints.

I *think* this should work for the MTK thingy, but someone needs to
go and check.

Thanks,

         M.
