I guess you're making the assumption that DMA might use phantom
function aliases (aliases on the same bus as the actual device), but
MSI writes will not?

Can you include a specific function reference here?  It sounds like
it'd be useful to compare this with the Intel IRQ remapping code.

Aliases can arise both because of device defects, e.g., the phantom
function quirks, and because of bridges, e.g., all the stuff in
pci_for_each_dma_alias().

Why is it that the users of get_msi_id_cb() can get away with
collapsing any of these bridge aliases into the last one that
pci_for_each_dma_alias() finds?  I guess this is another question
about exactly why DMA and MSI are different here.
