   - Simplification and distangling of the MSI related functionality

   - Let IO/APIC construct the RTE entries from an MSI message instead of
     having IO/APIC specific code in the interrupt remapping drivers

   - Make the retrieval of the parent interrupt domain (vector or remap
     unit) less hardcoded and use the relevant irqdomain callbacks for
     selection.

   - Allow the handling of more than 255 CPUs without a virtualized IOMMU
     when the hypervisor supports it. This has made been possible by the
     above modifications and also simplifies the existing workaround in the
     HyperV specific virtual IOMMU.

   - Cleanup of the historical timer_works() irq flags related
     inconsistencies.
