Irrespective of caching the MSI data in endpoint, I'd like to get rid of
request_irq/free_irq during the mhi_{power_down/power_up} time. As like the MHI
endpoint stack, we should just do disable/enable irq. Because, the MHI device
may go down several times while running and we do not want to deallocate the
IRQs all the time. And if the device gets removed, ultimately the MHI driver
will get removed and we are fine while loading it back (even if MSI count
changes).

I didn't had time to look into the patch in detail but I'm in favour of
accepting the proposal.

@Jeff: Any specific issue you are seeing with hotplug etc...?

Thanks,
