There is no such thing as "collection of node1". There are collections
mapped to redistributors.

Please update the commit message to reflect the actual issue.

Yes, but you are making desc optional, and I don't want it to be
optional. I want the kernel to scream that we're using an erratum
workaround so that we can understand what is happening when reading a
kernel log.

Make sure you can relate the ITS to it (have a way to find out which
node a given ITS belong to, without playing tricks with the memory map.

And? You have almost the same code twice. Surely you can devise a single
helper that holds this code.

Well, welcome to a much more complex system where both your CPUs and
your IOs have some degree of affinity. This needs to be described
properly, and not hacked on the side.

Thanks,
