I think maybe you mean: mbigen -> ITS-pMSI -> ITS- > GIC

But there is a problem If i make the structure like you said.

For example, my hardware structure likes below:

uart ------> mbigen --> ITS-pMSI --> ITS --> GIC
     virq1

virq1 means the virq number allocted by irq_of_parse_and_map() function
when system parse the uart dts node in initializing  stage.

To create a ITS device, I need to call msi_domain_alloc_irqs() function
in my mbigen alloc function.

In this function, a new virq number(named as virq2 ) which different from
virq1 is allocated.
So, this is a big problem.

If we want to use the hierarchy structure, I think

mbigen -> ITS -> GIC

maybe is a possible way .

The only problem is I need to do some change in ITS driver.

I mean move its_create_device() and its_find_device() into
 its_irq_domain_alloc()

But this solution is similar to my v3 patch.

Thanks!
