Where would you use the get_msi_ctrl pointer then ? Wasn't it better
to wait for this patchset to take shape before adding more churn to
the ARM (and other archs) pci_sys_data structure and consequently add
another pcibios call to achieve what the get_msi_ctrl pointer is there to
achieve (ie making msi_controller retrieval arch independent ?)

I just do not see what the pci_sys_data intermediate step buys you if
we consider the approach taken in this patch as the proper solution.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
