I guess it does make sense to add another irq core helper like:
void platform_device_msi_rewrite(struct device *dev, unsigned int irq,
irq_write_msi_msg_t write_msi_msg)
{
struct msi_desc *desc = irq_get_msi_desc(irq);
struct msi_msg msg;
if (!desc)
return;
__get_cached_msi_msg(desc, &msg);
write_msi_msg(desc, &msg);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(platform_device_msi_rewrite);

Ack. Yes, I think in this case we should be ideally clearing that
feature: smmu->features &= ~ARM_SMMU_FEAT_MSI; before return.
