Ah, okay. Thus, it depends to Linus opinion, since I, for example, would
like to see this field present in the structure independently of
OF_GPIO.

Yes, like I said above. You introduce hw irq in the pdata, which could
be 0.

If I understood correctly you messed up with hwirq vs. virq.
Otherwise you have mention that you are using virq everywhere (I guess
you may rename the field in the structure), but in this case the field
in the platform_data looks a bit strange. Linus, what do you think?
P.S. Please, remove my Reviewed-by tag since code is changed enough.
