Commit 6c846d026d49 ("gpio: Don't fiddle with irqchips marked as
immutable") added a warning to indicate if the gpiolib is altering the
internals of irqchips. Following this change the following warning is
now observed for the max77620 gpio driver ...
WARNING KERN gpio gpiochip0: (max77620-gpio): not an immutable chip,
please consider fixing it!
Fix the above warning by making the max77620 gpio driver immutable.
Thanks for looking into this. Comments below.

This warning is observed with v5.18-rc5 and so it would be great if
we can fix for v5.18. This is triggering a kernel warning test failure
on one of our platforms.
I'm surprised. This is definitely *not* 5.18 material, and I can't see
the patches in Linus' tree. Are you sure you're not running -next
instead?
Ah, you are correct, it was -next and not v5.18-rc5!

I'd rather you don't do this. This was added as a band-aid for drivers
that display a device-specific string in /proc/interrupts, and that we
cannot fix because the string is in effect an ABI.
Here, you're going in the opposite direction (making the name
device-specific while it was constant so far). This has the same
ABI-breaking effect, and we shouldn't do that. It is also rather
pointless, as we already have all the required debugging information
in debugfs (and I assume that this is the reason this is added).
OK, I will drop this.
+static const struct irq_chip max77620_gpio_irqchip = {
.name = "max77620-gpio",
.irq_mask = max77620_gpio_irq_mask,
.irq_unmask = max77620_gpio_irq_unmask,
You seem to be missing the updates for these two functions. Please see
the updated documentation in commit 5644b66a9c63 ("Documentation:
Update the recommended pattern for GPIO irqchips").
Yes I see. OK, I will add that.
Thanks! Jon
