Here's my advice, FWIW:

  - remove __weak

  - rename pcibios_set_host_bridge_msi_domain() to
    pci_host_bridge_msi_domain() and have it return a struct irq_domain *

  - pci_host_bridge_msi_domain() can call whatever firmware- or
    arch-specific code you need to look up the irq_domain

  - move the dev_set_msi_domain() call from pci_set_phb_of_msi_domain() to
    pci_set_bus_msi_domain()
