And kill pcibios_msi_controller from arch/arm, which means we have
to convert all arm platforms relying on pci_sys_data for the MSI look-up,
I only have an iMX6 Sabrelite, so yes, help is welcome here.

BTW, is there a reason why _all_ arm host bridges rely on
pcibios_msi_controller (so pci_sys_data) instead of initializing
the struct pci_bus.msi pointer to carry out the MSI controller look-up ?

I do not see any (and I want to get rid of pcibios_msi_controller on
arm asap, if we can use the struct pci_bus.msi pointer patch that's
trivial).

I know that the way forward is by doing it through domains and this
patchset, just asking (to understand why pcibios_msi_controller is
even needed on arm at present).

I tested it on arm64 AMD Seattle too, so FWIW:
