Regarding the Fixes tag: I think that it is not needed here because this is not
 a bug fix.

The driver has been functional for two years using only the MSI interrupt. The
current implementation works correctly for basic PCIe operation. This patch
adds support for additional interrupt lines (dma, intr, aer, pme) to enable
enhanced features and capabilities that were previously not utilized.

This is a feature enhancement, not a correction of broken functionality. The
hardware supports these additional interrupts, and we're now exposing them in
the device tree to allow the driver to take advantage of enhanced features.

I hope this clarifies your concern.
