The allocation code is overly complex. It tries to have the MSI index space packed, which is not working when an interrupt is freed. There is no requirement for this. The only requirement is that the MSI index is unique. Move the MSI descriptor allocation into msi_domain_populate_irqs() and use the Linux interrupt number as MSI index which fulfils the unique requirement. This requires to lock the MSI descriptors which makes the lock order reverse to the regular MSI alloc/free functions vs. the domain mutex. Assign a seperate lockdep class for these MSI device domains.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
