HW interprets RVU_AF_MSIXTR_BASE address as an IOVA, hence
create a IOMMU mapping for the physcial address configured by
firmware and reconfig RVU_AF_MSIXTR_BASE with IOVA.

I think this needs some more explanation. What is the difference between
the MSI-X support in this driver and every other one? Are you working
around a hardware bug, or is there something odd in the implementation
of your irqchip driver? Do you use a GIC to handle the MSI interrupts
or something else?
