Pull MSI irq fix from Thomas Gleixner: "An urgent fix for the XEN related PCI/MSI changes: XEN used a global variable to disable the masking of MSI interrupts as XEN handles that on the hypervisor side. This turned out to be a problem with VMD as the PCI devices behind a VMD bridge are not always handled by the hypervisor and then require masking by guest. To solve this the global variable was replaced by a interrupt domain specific flag, which is set by the generic XEN PCI/MSI domain, but not by VMD or any other domain in the system. So far, so good. But the implementation (and the reviewer) missed the fact, that accessing the domain flag cannot be done directly because there are at least two situations, where this fails. Legacy architectures are not providing interrupt domains at all. The new MSI parent domains do not require to have a domain info pointer. Both cases result in a unconditional NULL pointer derefence. The PCI/MSI code already has a function to query the MSI domain specific flag in a safe way, which handles all possible cases of PCI/MSI backends. So the fix it simply to replace the open coded checks by invoking the safe helper to query the flag" * tag 'irq-urgent-2025-03-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: PCI/MSI: Handle the NOMASK flag correctly for all PCI/MSI backends
