While touching PIC? That's related, but you want to prepare the PIC code
first in order to enable the compile test and not burry that change
within a gazillion lines of Kconfig muck.

  depends on OF && HAS_IOMEM

So while at it you can mop up this too. IRQ_MSI_LIB already selects
GENERIC_MSI_IRQ

What ensures that IRQ_MSI_LIB is selected, when MVEBU_SEI is selected?

What guarantees that 'linux/bits.h' is included under all circumstances?

I'm really not impressed by this AI assisted slop at all.
