[PATCH v2 2/2] of/irq: Stop the MSI walk at the first msi-parent
From: Fuad Tabba
Date: Mon Sep 07 2026 - 08:23:42 EST
of_check_msi_parent() returns -EINVAL both when the msi-parent names a
controller other than the one the caller filters on and when #msi-cells
isn't 0, so of_msi_xlate() can't tell the two apart and carries on up
the hierarchy. An ancestor's msi-map then maps the device onto a
controller its own node didn't name.
Hand the parsed specifier back to of_msi_xlate(), which owns the
reference as it already does on the msi-map path, and end the walk at
any node that declares an msi-parent.
