Unlike OF framework, the irqchip probe using IRQCHIP_ACPI_DECLARE has no order defined. Depending on the Makefile is not a good idea. So, usually it is worked around by mandating only root interrupt controller probed using IRQCHIP_ACPI_DECLARE and other interrupt controllers are probed via cascade mechanism. However, this is also not a clean solution because if there are multiple root controllers (ex: RINTC in RISC-V which is per CPU) which need to be probed first, then the cascade will happen for every root controller. So, introduce a architecture specific weak function to order the probing of the interrupt controllers which can be implemented by different architectures as per their interrupt controller hierarchy.
