Hi Marc,
I tested channels from 1 to 8, and no issue found.
We register irq handler with irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(), so the interrupt descriptor could find the controller's private data, and channel index is one part of private data.
I think this can explain the interrupt descriptor how to indicate which channel it is multiplexed.
