I like the replacement of "#ifndef arch_msi_check_device()" with a
weak implementation here, but this only does half the job -- shouldn't
we remove the powerpc "#define arch_msi_check_device
arch_msi_check_device" at the same time?

And since we're touching all the check_device() implementations, maybe
we could come up with a better name.  "check_device()" conveys
absolutely no information about what we're checking or what the sense
of the result is.  arch_msi_supported()?  pcibios_msi_supported()?  I
guess it should be consistent with the other arch interfaces, so
arch_*() is probably better.

Maybe the ugly #ifdef-ery around arch_setup_msi_irqs,
arch_teardown_msi_irqs, and arch_restore_msi_irqs could be cleaned up
similarly?  Somebody worked pretty hard to obfuscate all that,
probably before weak functions were available.

If we do end up adding interfaces like this (I'm not sure it will work
-- see below), I think it would be better to pass just the pci_dev,
not the "msi_chip, pci_dev" pair.  Passing both pointers avoids a
cheap lookup in the caller, but it adds a way that two inseparable
things can get out of sync.

"msi" seems like a too-generic name here; it suggests an interrupt or
IRQ, not a controller.

I'm not sure this is the correct place for it.  Having it in the
struct pci_bus means you need arch code to fill it in, e.g., you added
it in mvebu_pcie_scan_bus() in patch 09/11.  There's no good way to do
that for arches that use pci_scan_root_bus(), which is the direction
I'd like to go.

I think it probably should go in sysdata instead.  That would mean you
can't really do generic weak setup/tear-down functions, because they
wouldn't know how to pull the MSI controller info out of the
arch-specific sysdata.  But there are so many levels of weak-ness
going on there, maybe it would be a good thing to get rid of one :)
