Correct. Aside of that this is debug information and has no business in
sysfs.
The obvious place to expose this is via the existing debugfs irq/*
mechanism. All it requires is to implement a debug_show() callback in
the MSI core code and assign it to domain ops::debug_show() on domain
creation, if it does not provide its own callback.
