IIUC, you're saying this pattern:

  fwnode = irq_domain_alloc_named_id_fwnode(...)
  irq_domain = pci_msi_create_irq_domain(fwnode, ...)
  irq_domain_free_fwnode(fwnode)

leaves a dangling fwnode pointer.  That does look suspicious because
__irq_domain_add() saves fwnode:

  irq_domain = pci_msi_create_irq_domain(fwnode, ...)
    msi_create_irq_domain(fwnode, ...)
      irq_domain_create_hierarchy(..., fwnode, ...)
	irq_domain_create_linear(fwnode, ...)
	  __irq_domain_add(fwnode, ...)
	    domain->fwnode = fwnode

and irq_domain_free_fwnode() frees it.  But I'm confused because there
are several other instances of this pattern:

  bridge_probe()                      # arch/mips/pci/pci-xtalk-bridge.c
  mp_irqdomain_create()
  arch_init_msi_domain()
  arch_create_remap_msi_irq_domain()
  dmar_get_irq_domain()
  hpet_create_irq_domain()
  ...

Are they all wrong?  I definitely think it's a bad idea to keep a copy
of a pointer after we free the data it points to.  But if they're all
wrong, I don't want to fix just one and leave all the others.

Thomas, can you enlighten us?
