Actually I just sent it today, but you're right that it seems to have a
date of last Tuesday, so I must have configured something wrong on my
end before I sent it (sorry).

I think you're right, it feels strange to handle IRQ initialization via
the GPIO framework. Maybe somewhere in regmap_irq might be more
appropriate?

I'm not opposed to initializing the hardware in _probe(), although I can
see merit in pushing that operation instead closer to the framework
where the initialization is actually relevant.

Andy, maybe you can shed some light about .init_hw; I think you
introduced it to gpiolib in commit 9411e3aaa6342.
