Please don't enumerate WHAT the patch is doing. Explain context, problem
and solution in that order:

See the variable declaration chapter in the documentation above.

Please convert this to

	scoped_guard(spinlock, &msi_data->lock)
		pos = bitmap_find_free_region(msi_data->used, msi_data->irqs_num, order);

No line break required. You have 100 characters.

scoped_guard() please

Lacks brackets. See bracket rules in documentation.
