With platform msi support landed in the kernel, and the introduction
of IORT for GICv3 ITS (PCI MSI) [1], the framework for platform msi
is ready, this patch set add few patches to enable the ACPI platform
msi support.

For platform device connecting to ITS on arm platform, we have IORT
table with the named componant node to describe the mappings of paltform
device and ITS, so we can retrieve the dev id and find its parent
irqdomain (ITS) from IORT table (simlar with the ACPI ITS support).

With acpi platform msi supported, we add the ACPI support for irqchip
mbi-gen, which use this framework to form its stacked irqdomain, below
is the mbi-gen's topology in the system:


| ---------------| |------------------|
| | MSI | | wired interrupt(s)
| ITS |<-----------------| MBI-GEN |<----------------------------- IO device(s)
| | | |<----------------------------- IO device(s)
------------------ -------------------

So with ACPI platform MSI support, we can build the stacked domain for
mbi-gen which represented its mappings with the named componant in IORT,
but we still missing the connectings of devices to mbi-gen as in ACPI
world devices connect to main interrupt controller in MADT in default.

In ACPI 6.1, section 19.6.62, Interrupt Resource Descriptor Macro,

Interrupt (ResourceUsage, EdgeLevel, ActiveLevel, Shared,
ResourceSourceIndex, ResourceSource, DescriptorName)
{ InterruptList } => Buffer

For the arguement ResourceUsage and DescriptorName, which means:

ResourceUsage describes whether the device consumes the specified
interrupt ( ResourceConsumer ) or produces it for use by a child
device ( ResourceProducer ).
If nothing is specified, then ResourceConsumer is assumed.

DescriptorName evaluates to a name string which refers to the
entire resource descriptor.

So it can be used for devices connecting to a specific interrupt
prodcucer instead of the main interrupt controller in MADT, we can
define:

Interrupt(ResourceConsumer,..., "\_SB.IRQP") {12,14,....},

then get the interrupt producer with the full path name "\_SB.IRQP".

This is the RFC version and we still needs to address:
- the code is still in drivers/acpi/iort.c which will move to
drivers/acpi/arm64 in the future;

- Retrieve the dev id from IORT which require the req_id but
for platform device we don't need that, so we may need to
add proper API for platform device;

- Setting device's MSI domain's code is just plugged into the platform
driver core code, which may need better solution.

Comments are warmly welcomed!

Thanks
Hanjun
