IRQ domain. See irq_domain_set_pm_device() and how PM is used on
interrupt request.

I wish you didn't do that.

Then it should go.

Then please document what this is, what the various registers are, and
correctly set type everywhere.

Then is it really useful to model that as a MSI controller? This
smells of a mailbox controller to me instead. And I really worry that
this device doesn't correctly preserve the ordering between a device
doing DMA and generating an interrupt to indicate completion of the
DMA transaction... Does this block offers such a guarantee?

Is that an integrated EP on the same SoC? Or are you talking of two
SoCs connected over PCIe? Also, you explicitly said that this was
*not* a PCI/MSI controller. So what is this all about?

That doesn't make it right.
