Ok, it took me a while to understand how aardvark handles MSIs.

IIUC, msi_data contains the payload of the latest MSI write received.

First off, I believe that using a Linux IRQ number for MSI data
(payload)(I guess you rely on its truncated bits [4:0] to trigger the
related MSI IRQs, which I believe is questionable - if not broken) is
not a good idea.

Is my understanding correct ?

This patch and the following one are fixing this. Given that this is IRQ
domain code if Marc can cast a look into it that would help me, to make
sure I have not missed anything.

Certainly replacing the MSI payload to the HW irq number makes sense to
me (and this patch makes sense too, I think mainline code may miss some
MSI IRQs if I understand this patch correctly).
