Thanks.

We still need to rework the whole irqchip stuff for sun6i/sun8i,
which have 1 parent interrupt per EINT capable pin bank.

Earlier discussions with Maxime (on IRC IIRC) suggested moving this
over to gpiolib irqchip helpers might be more work than using our own
irqchip implementation, requiring 1 gpiochip per pin group? (not sure)
