It's taken me a while to get back to this, apologies. Here's where I'm at:

At the very least these need the +.irq_ack() treatment, same as the ITS
chips. We can get around this by giving msi_domain_update_chip_ops() some
invoke-first-non-NULL default callbacks, as you've suggested in:

http://lore.kernel.org/r/87y2c0s748.wl-maz@kernel.org


Now, looking at this made me think about which irq_chip flags are being
used where, and, well...

PCI-MSI IRQs are deemed 'oneshot safe', but platform-MSI ones aren't. So
for instance, if a GICv2M pMSI IRQ gets force-threaded, we'll make it
IRQS_ONESHOT. However, this is still just a glorified SPI as all mask, ack
and eoi operations will be the root chip's, so we should be able to apply
the eoimode=1 automask trickery to it. This won't happen with the current
patches, since the ->chip we'll seeing in handle_strict_flow_irq() will be
gicv2m_pmsi_irq_chip.

We *could* give that one the required flags, but what actually matters for
the automask thing are the flags of first chip in the hiearachy that has
"proper" ack+eoi callbacks. I don't see a nice way of handling this right
now...
