Some OF irqchips, such as the RISC-V PLIC, use interrupts-extended to
specify their parent domain(s). That binding does not allow using the
interrupt-parent property in the irqchip node, which prevents
of_irq_init from properly detecting the irqchip hierarchy.
If no interrupt-parent property is present in the enclosing bus or root
node, then desc->interrupt_parent will be NULL for both the per-CPU
RISC-V INTCs (the actual root domains) and the RISC-V PLIC. Similarly,
if the bus or root node specifies `interrupt-parent = <&plic>`, then
of_irq_init will hit the `desc->interrupt_parent == np` check, and again
all parents will be NULL. So things happen to work today for some boards
due to Makefile ordering.
However, things break when another irqchip ("foo") is stacked on top of
the PLIC. The bus/root node will have `interrupt-parent = <&foo>`,
since that is what all of the other peripherals need. When of_irq_init
runs, it will try to find the PLIC's parent domain. But because
of_irq_find_parent ignores interrupts-extended, it will fall back to
using the interrupt-parent property of the PLIC's parent node (i.e. the
bus or root node), and see "foo" as the PLIC's parent domain. But this
is wrong, because "foo" is actually the PLIC's child domain!
So of_irq_init wrongly attempts to init the stacked irqchip before the
PLIC. This fails and breaks boot.
Fix this by having of_irq_find_parent return the first node referenced
by interrupts-extended when that property is present. Even if the
property references multiple different IRQ domains, this will still work
reliably in of_irq_init as long as all referenced domains are the same
distance away from some root domain (e.g. the RISC-V INTCs referenced by
the PLIC's interrupts-extended are always all root domains).
