VFIO_CDX driver uses msi_domain_alloc_irqs() which is provided by non-user-visible GENERIC_MSI_IRQ, thus it should select that option directly.
VFIO_CDX depends on CDX_BUS, which also will select GENERIC_MSI_IRQ (separate fix), nevertheless driver should poll what is being used there instead of relying on bus Kconfig.
Without the fix on CDX_BUS compile test fails:

This seems like a recipe for an explosion of Kconfig noise. If the bus fundamentally depends on a config option, as proposed in the separate fix, I don't see that a driver dependent on that bus needs to duplicate the config selections. IMO this is sufficiently fixed updating drivers/cdx/{Kconfig,Makefile}. Thanks,
Alex
