I mentioned in the cover letter that the approach was defensive and
rough today. As soon as we detect an MSI controller in the platform that
has no support for MSI remapping we flag the assignment as unsafe. I
think this approach was agreed on the ML. Such rough assessment was used
in the past on x86.

I am reluctant to add more complexity at that stage. This can be
improved latter I think when such platforms show up.
