[PATCH] irqchip/msi-lib: Refuse initialization when irq_write_msi_msg() is missing

From: Thomas Gleixner

Date: Tue Feb 03 2026 - 16:05:56 EST


MSI parent domains rely on the fact that the top level device domain
provides a irq_write_msi_msg() callback.

Check for that and if missing warn and refuse to initialize the device domain.
