I would expect that only the root irqchip in the hierarchy would do that. At the point where this is called, the hierarchy isn't fully populated (the irq_domain_alloc_irqs_parent() call comes after that), and irq_chip_ack_parent() explodes as above. Linus: is there a reason why the gpiolib insist on setting its own handler while building the hierarchy? I guess this could be worked around by swapping the calls to irq_domain_set_info and irq_domain_alloc_irqs_parent, but having two levels of the hierarchy competing for the flow handler looks a bit odd. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.
