Interesting. you can find it by "[ARM] Preliminary support for dynamic IRQ" written by Eric. Instead define the 'NR_IRQS' of chip, board can define each 'nr_irqs' at init time. Maybe smdk don't use the GPIOs. but mobile phones at samsung use the until MP0x. Sometime H/W team connect it at MP04 or MP05 which doesn't support GPIO interrupt.
