However a problem comes out when deciding which parameters should be passed to this routine. A message can associate with multiple interrupts, which makes me think composing messages for each interrupt is not that appropriate. And we can take a look at the new routine irq_chip_compose_msi_msg(). It is called by msi_domain_activate() which will be called by irq_domain_activate_irq() in irq_startup() for each interrupt descriptor, result in composing a message for each interrupt, right? (Unless requiring a judge on the parameter @data when implementing the irq_compose_msi_msg() callback that only compose message for the first entry of that message. But I really don't like that...)
