Thanks for the report. I can (kind of) reproduce the problem with QEMU.

I think moving rtas_prepare_msi_irqs() into pseries_irq_domain_alloc()
should resolve the problem. But I'm not sure because I don't understand
how RTAS works.

Does IBM have some documentation describing the RTAS API? I failed to
google it.

Best regards,
Nam
