Indeed. I also wonder why this isn't just a irq_find_parent() call, TBH.

And 'interrupts-extended', while we're at it.

Agreed. Though you need the object the dependency is on, I guess, if
you want to be able to have the dependency edge between the device and
the interrupt controller. But since the commit message doesn't say
much about what this is trying to achieve, I'm only guessing the
purpose of this patch.
