What about this code? This requires get_msi_data() as well

pp->msi_data is set in dw_pcie_msi_init, which is a global function
called from vendor specific code. You can have your own
keystone_pcie_msi_init and then you do not need above changes.

My Apologies for the email format as I lost the original email and had
to respond using a forwarded email.

If you look at my original patch, keystone driver was not calling
dw_pcie_msi_init(). However the issue is msi_chip of DW core is
re-used as most of the code is platform independent. However
code that sends write_msi_msg() can be re-used on keystone by
adding this get_msi_data() API as the only difference IMO is the
address EP writes to raise an MSI IRQ event. I don't see any
reason why the entire code needs to be duplicated on Keystone.
BTW, currently I have not tested the MSI IRQ and tested my driver
only with Legacy IRQ. I plan to test this before sending my
v3 of the patch.

-- 3rd to use pp->ops->msi_set/clear if defined.
Why not API enhancement and refactor the code in a single patch?

Yes, can be. You can send changes in 2 or 3 patches as you wish, but I
believe that should be able to solve problem in best way.

Pls let us know for any issue or have different opinion.
