PCI: dwc: Remove MSI/MSIX capability for Root Port if iMSI-RX is used as MSI controller
Some platforms may not support ITS (Interrupt Translation Service) and MBI
(Message Based Interrupt), or there are not enough available empty SPI
lines for MBI, in which case the msi-map and msi-parent property will not
be provided in device tree node. For those cases, the DWC PCIe driver
defaults to using the iMSI-RX module as MSI controller. However, due to
DWC IP design, iMSI-RX cannot generate MSI interrupts for Root Ports even
when MSI is properly configured and supported as iMSI-RX will only monitor
and intercept incoming MSI TLPs from PCIe link, but the memory write
generated by Root Port are internal system bus transactions instead of
PCIe TLPs, so they are ignored.
This leads to interrupts such as PME, AER from the Root Port not received
on the host and the users have to resort to workarounds such as passing
"pcie_pme=nomsi" cmdline parameter.
To ensure reliable interrupt handling, remove MSI and MSI-X capabilities
from Root Ports when using iMSI-RX as MSI controller, which is indicated
by 'dw_pcie_rp::has_msi_ctrl == true'. This forces a fallback to INTx
interrupts by default, eliminating the need for manual kernel command line
workarounds.
With this behavior:
- Platforms with ITS/MBI support use ITS/MBI MSI for interrupts from all
components.
- Platforms without ITS/MBI support fall back to INTx for Root Ports and
use iMSI-RX for other PCI devices.
