I choose to return true based on the function header comments of 
irq_domain_check_msi_remap. It says

"Return: false if any MSI irq domain does not support IRQ remapping, 
true otherwise (including if there is no MSI irq domain)"

So function should return true in case of no MSI irq domain. Have I miss 
understood this?
