If you're referring to the one that adds the IRQ_GC_MASK_FROM_HWIRQ
flag, as far as I can tell this means I'd have to call
irq_setup_generic_chip on each individual irq (since virqs may not be
linear), or else resort to creating a legacy irqdomain (which I thought
was... well for legacy use).
It feels a bit convoluted, and wrong given that it adds itself to
gc_list. Did I misunderstand how you were expecting me to make use of
the generic chip functions with a linear irqdomain?
Given that your patch presumably isn't upstream yet anyway, is it
acceptable to go with the current version (other fixes applied) and
update it later if necessary?
Thanks
James
