Actually looking at it deeper the solution is trivial because in this
case writing the MSI message to the device is not required when the
affinity changes because the message does not change. It is set once via
msi_domain_activate() and stays the same for the life time of the
interrupt.

So the below prevents the invocation of irq_chip_write_msi_msg() in
msi_domain_set_affinity(), but I would recommend to investigate the
actual underlying problem nevertheless:

It is going to roar its ugly head at some other place sooner than later
as there are tons of other places which guard against
pci_dev::current_state != PCI_D0.

Thanks,
