Thanks, Michael. I neve know that you've implemented bitmaps to manage
MSI interrupts. It seems arch/powerpc/sysdev/msi_bitmap.c meets our
requirment here except that needs device tree node. Fortunately, we
can set the corresponding device tree node to NULL and functions playing
with the device tree nodes (of_node_get/of_node_put) works well for NULL
device tree node.

I'll update powernv platform to use msi_bitmap.c to manage it MSI interrupts.

Thanks,
Gavin
