I tested your v4.9-reserved-v4 branch on a ITS capable hardware (NXP
LS2080), so I did not set allow_unsafe_interrupts. It fails here
complaining that the there is no interrupt remapping support. The
irq_domain_check_msi_remap function returns false as none of the checked
domains has the IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_MSI_REMAP flag set. I think the reason
is that the flags are not propagated through the domain hierarchy when
the domain is created.

Thanks,

Diana
