The only concern I have is https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/18/283 attempts to define a PCI bus flag dubbed PCI_BUS_FLAGS_MSI_REMAP combining the iommu & msi layer info. In that sense x86 people may not be keen of having different terminaologies. Anyway I will follow the consensus, if any.

Let's introduce a new msi_domain_info flag value, MSI_FLAG_IRQ_REMAPPING meant to tell the domain supports IRQ REMAPPING, also known as Interrupt Translation Service. On Intel HW this IRQ remapping capability is abstracted on IOMMU side while on ARM it is abstracted on MSI controller side. This flag will be used to know whether the MSI passthrough is safe.
