As I replied to Grant, of_find_device_by_node() returns NULL, I believe
because the all IRQ controller driver initialization is done pretty
early, before the of_platform_populate() call is made, so there is no
platform_device associated with the IRQ controller node at the time the
armada_370_xp_mpic_of_init() function is called.

Do you see another approach, especially in relation to your comment on
PATCH 2/8 ?

Best regards,

Thomas
