Hi Greg,

Add CDX-MSI domain per CDX controller with gic-its domain as
a parent, to support MSI for CDX devices. CDX devices allocate
MSIs from the CDX domain. Also, introduce APIs to alloc and free
IRQs for CDX domain.

In CDX subsystem firmware is a controller for all devices and
their configuration. CDX bus controller sends all the write_msi_msg
commands to firmware running on RPU and the firmware interfaces with
actual devices to pass this information to devices

Since, CDX controller is the only way to communicate with the Firmware
for MSI write info, CDX domain per controller required in contrast to
having a CDX domain per device.

Please help in making progress on this patch. Is there anything that needs
to be updated in this patch for CDX bus?

$ mdfrm -c ~/mail/todo/
2031 messages in /home/gregkh/mail/todo/

So perhaps help in reviewing other pending patches for other subsystems?
It's in my queue, but have been traveling for 2 weeks for conferences,
will be catching up next week when I get a chance.

Also, you need to get the msi/interrupt developers to agree with this,
why not get their review and acceptance first?

Thanks for quick response and sorry for prodding. I will check with Thomas/Marc for their feedback.

Nipun
