You probably remember your fix to the irqchip drive being flamed because the irqchip driver was re-purposed as an ARM SMP secondary core bringup method, maybe we can avoid doing the same mistake and having this a separate interrupt controller be under drivers/irqchip/*? Even if the clock driver already claims the AUX_IRQ register space, we can still have an irqchip ioremap() the two register offsets that it cares about (AUXIRQ, AUXENB) and just manage that 8 bytes worth of register space. We just need to make sure that the clock driver really does not touch those (why would it) and that there won't be any conflicting request_mem_region() against the same register range.
