Sorry to hear that.

Thank you for testing with ITS. As mentioned in the part 3 cover letter,
I could not test assignment with this MSI controller; I now have access
to it so I am going to test it from next release onwards.

Hum OK, I missed the fact the chip_data was overwritten on
its_irq_domain_alloc. I will investigate what we have as other alternatives.

Thank you for the time spent on debugging that ;-)
