msi_domain_alloc_irqs() and msi_domain_alloc_irqs_descs_locked()
are a pair.

What I didn't get was why the unlocked invocation in this patch
is replaced by a range-based helper while the locked invocation
in previous patch16 was replaced by an all-based helper:

	if (domain && irq_domain_is_hierarchy(domain))
-		return msi_domain_alloc_irqs_descs_locked(domain, &dev->dev, nvec);
+		return msi_domain_alloc_irqs_all_locked(&dev->dev, MSI_DEFAULT_DOMAIN, nvec);

The reason could probably be marked out in the commit msg.
