Applied to for-linus with changelog below for v4.3, thanks!

    PCI/MSI: Fix MSI IRQ domains for VFs on virtual buses
    
    SR-IOV creates a virtual bus where bus->self is NULL.  When we add VFs and
    scan for an MSI domain, pci_set_bus_msi_domain() dereferences bus->self,
    which causes a kernel NULL pointer dereference oops.
    
    Scan up to the parent bus until we find a real bridge where we can get the
    MSI domain.
