I guess no, unless we expand struct udevice to include interrupt
routing information? But that's not generic across architectures. I am
not sure how.

Yep. I wanted to do this when reviewing one of previous patches.

Looks e1000 and pch_gbe (Crown Bay) ethernet drivers are still using
legacy PCI APIs. e1000 might need quite amount of work as it is being
widely used on lots of boards. I can update pch_gbe driver later.

Yep.

I was not following the dm video changes recently, but I guess yes.
