If ids are 1:1, then the DT should use msi-parent. If there is
remapping, then use msi-map. A given system should use one or the
other. I suppose if some ids are 1:1 and the msi-map was added to add
additional support for ids not 1:1, then you could end up with both.
That's fine in dts files, but examples should reflect the 'right' way.
