Add alloc_msi() callback to irq_domain_ops seems a little overaction.
I think the main idea is to make MSI code public as much as possible,
so I have found another solution to move MSI irqdomain code into
drivers/pci/msi.c and only following code are platform dependent now.
How about this solution?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
int native_setup_msi_irqs(struct pci_dev *dev, int nvec, int type)
{
        struct irq_domain *domain;
        struct irq_alloc_info info;

        init_irq_alloc_info(&info, NULL);
        info.msi_dev = dev;
        if (type == PCI_CAP_ID_MSI) {
                info.type = X86_IRQ_ALLOC_TYPE_MSI;
                info.flags |= X86_IRQ_ALLOC_CONTIGOUS_VECTORS;
        } else {
                info.type = X86_IRQ_ALLOC_TYPE_MSIX;
        }

        domain = irq_remapping_get_irq_domain(&info);
        if (domain == NULL)
                domain = msi_default_domain;
        if (domain == NULL)
                return -ENOSYS;

        return msi_irq_domain_alloc_irqs(domain, type, dev, &info);
}

void native_teardown_msi_irq(unsigned int irq)
{
        irq_domain_free_irqs(irq, 1);
}

irq_hw_number_t arch_msi_irq_domain_get_hwirq(void *arg)
{
        struct irq_alloc_info *info = arg;

        return info->msi_hwirq;
}

void arch_msi_irq_domain_set_hwirq(void *arg, irq_hw_number_t hwirq)
{
        struct irq_alloc_info *info = arg;

        info->msi_hwirq = hwirq;
}

void arch_init_msi_domain(struct irq_domain *parent)
{
        if (disable_apic)
                return;

        msi_default_domain = msi_create_irq_domain(parent);
        if (!msi_default_domain)
                pr_warn("failed to initialize irqdomain for MSI/MSI-x.\n");
}

#ifdef CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP
struct irq_domain *arch_create_msi_irq_domain(struct irq_domain *parent)
{
        return msi_create_irq_domain(parent);
}
#endif

The issue here is that, the hierarchy irqdomain maintains a tree
topology and every irqdomain only supports one parent.

In case of irq remapping, we need to build one irqdomain for each IOMMU
unit to support hotplug and simplify the implementation. So we need to
build one MSI irqdomain for each IOMMU unit too instead of using a
common MSI irqdomain.

Current design is that, a common MSI irqdomain to support all MSI when
irq remapping is disabled, and one MSI irqdomain for each IOMMU unit
when irq remapping is enabled.

So we have the code below to choose the correct irqdomain for MSI.
        domain = irq_remapping_get_irq_domain(&info);
        if (domain == NULL)
                domain = msi_default_domain;
        if (domain == NULL)
                return -ENOSYS;

I have worked out a working patch to make decision in vector domain,
as you have suggested.
