Improve the msi code:
1. Add proper error handling.
2. Move dw_pcie_msi_init() from each users to designware host to 
solve
msi page leakage in resume path.

Apologies if this is slightly off topic, but I have been meaning to 
ask
about MSIs and PCI. On Tegra194 which uses the DWC PCI driver, 
whenever we
hotplug CPUs we see the following warnings ...

 [      79.068351] WARNING KERN IRQ70: set affinity failed(-22).
 [      79.068362] WARNING KERN IRQ71: set affinity failed(-22).

I tried to reproduce this issue on Synaptics SoC, but can't reproduce 
it.
Per my understanding of the code in kernel/irq/cpuhotplug.c, this 
warning
happened when we migrate irqs away from the offline cpu, this 
implicitly
implies that before this point the irq has bind to the offline cpu, 
but how
could this happen given current dw_pci_msi_set_affinity() 
implementation
always return -EINVAL

By default the smp_affinity should be set so that all CPUs can be
interrupted ...

$ cat /proc/irq/70/smp_affinity
0xff

In my case there are 8 CPUs and so 0xff implies that the interrupt can
be triggered on any of the 8 CPUs.

Do you see the set_affinity callback being called for the DWC irqchip 
in
migrate_one_irq()?

The problem is common to all MSI implementations that end up muxing
all the end-point MSIs into a single interrupt. With these systems,
you cannot set the affinity of individual MSIs (they don't target a
CPU, they target another interrupt... braindead). Only the mux
interrupt can have its affinity changed.

So returning -EINVAL is the right thing to do.
