[PATCH 00/13] PCI: MSI: Getting rid of msi_controller, and other cleanups

The msi_controller data structure was the first attempt at treating
MSIs like any other interrupt. We replaced it a few years ago with the
generic MSI framework, but as it turns out, some older drivers are
still using it.

This series aims at converting these stragglers, drop msi_controller,
and fix some other nits such as having ways for a host bridge to
advertise whether it supports MSIs or not.

A few notes:

- The Tegra patch is the result of back and forth work with Thierry: I
  wrote the initial patch, which didn't work (I didn't have any HW at
  the time). Thierry made it work, and I subsequently fixed a couple
  of bugs/cleanups. I'm responsible for the result, so don't blame
  Thierry for any of it! FWIW, I'm now running a Jetson TX2 with its
  root fs over NVME, and MSIs are OK.

- RCAR is totally untested, though Marek had a go at a previous
  version. More testing required.

- The xilinx stuff is *really* untested. Paul, if you have a RISC-V
  board that uses it, could you please give it a go? Michal, same
  thing for the stuff you have at hand...

- hyperv: I don't have access to such hypervisor, and no way to test
  it. Help welcomed.

- The patches dealing with the advertising of MSI handling are the
  result of a long discussion that took place here[1]. I took the
  liberty to rejig Thomas' initial patches, and add what I needed for
  the MSI domain stuff. Again, blame me if something is wrong, and not
  Thomas.

Feedback welcome.
