Thanks! Here's the problem:

    [    1.037223] pcieport 10000:e0:1d.0: __pci_enable_msix_range:840 err=hwsize

The PCIe port driver enables interrupt, trying MSI-X first. However, the
device does not support MSI-X, so it tries MSI instead, which triggers
the WARN_ON() in VMD driver.

What's strange is that, the VMD doc says:

    "Intel VMD only supports MSIx Interrupts from child devices and
    therefore the BIOS must enable PCIe Hot Plug and MSIx interrups"

Is it lying to us?

Can you	please try:

    Revert d5c647b08ee0 ("PCI: vmd: Fix wrong kfree() in vmd_msi_free()")
    Revert d7d8ab87e3e7 ("PCI: vmd: Switch to msi_create_parent_irq_domain()")

So that the driver is back to the original state before I touched it.

And apply the diff below. This will tell us if my commit breaks the driver
somehow, or VMD has been allowing MSI all this time.
