The Cirrus Logic CS48L31/32/33 audio codecs contain a programmable
interrupt controller with a variety of interrupt sources, including
GPIOs that can be used as interrupt inputs.

This driver provides the handling for the interrupt controller. As the
codec is accessed via regmap, the generic regmap_irq functionality
is used to do most of the work.


I cannot spot a shred of interrupt controller code in there. This

It is providing support for handling an interrupt controller so that
other drivers can bind to those interrupts. It's just that regmap
provides a lot of generic implementation for SPI-connected interrupt
controllers so we don't need to open-code all that in the
irqchip driver.

belongs IMO to the MFD code.

We did once put interrupt support in MFD for an older product line but
the MFD maintainer doesn't like the MFD being a dumping-ground for
random other functionality that have their own subsystems.

 It is also a direct copy of the existing
irq-madera.c code, duplicated for no obvious reason.

It's not a duplicate. The register map of this device is different
(different addressing, 32-bit registers not 16-bit)
