With the system coprocessor managing the range allocation of the
inputs to Interrupt Aggregator, it is difficult to represent
the device IRQs from DT.

The suggestion is to use MSI in such cases where devices wants
to allocate and group interrupts dynamically.

Create a MSI domain bus layer that allocates and frees MSIs for
a device.

APIs that are implemented:
- ti_sci_inta_msi_create_irq_domain() that creates a MSI domain
- ti_sci_inta_msi_domain_alloc_irqs() that creates MSIs for the
  specified device and resource.
- ti_sci_inta_msi_domain_free_irqs() frees the irqs attached to the device.
- ti_sci_inta_msi_get_virq() for getting the virq attached to a specific event.

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
