Well, this is not supposed to be a perfect solution yet, but instead a
basis for discussion. What I'd like to find out is:

- What is the minimum granularity for associating a device with its MSI
domain in existing platforms?
- What topology data structures do you use to find out what MSI
controller a device should be matched with?
- What in-tree platform already has this requirements?

Thanks,

	M.
