So, what seems need to be added is some flag to GPIO regmap configuration
data structure and a code that is called after gpiochip_add_data() in
gpio_regmap_register() to create a domain. This will solve the above issue
and helps other drivers to get rid of potential duplication of
devm_regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode() calls.

Have you researched this path?
