If you are on an old version, the return value from the ioctls have been inverted by Mani:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/f26d37ee9bda938e968d0e11ba1f8f1588b2a135
But you should use the pci endpoint selftest, or the pcitest.sh shell script.
Both the pci endpoint selftest and the pcitest.sh shell script always do ioctl(PCITEST_SET_IRQTYPE) before doing a read/write/copy test.
Like you said, pcitest and the matching pcitest.sh shell script have been removed, so I suggest using the selftest.

It is supported by the selftest.
It is not supported by pcitest since it has been removed from the tree.
driver_data was just specifying the default IRQ type, but that IRQ type was always overriden using ioctl(PCITEST_SET_IRQTYPE) before a read/write/copy/test by the pcitest.sh shell script and the selftest, so the IRQ type in driver_data was quite pointless.
Kind regards,
