So this still doesn't use GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP even though I pointed
out that you can assign several parent interrupts to the same
irqchip.

For a recent example see:
http://marc.info/?l=devicetree&m=149012117004066&w=2
(Notice Gregory's elegant manipulation of the mask.)

Sorry if I missed that.

Actually it works.

If you look at gpiochip_set_chained_irqchip() it just calls
irq_set_chained_handler_and_data() for the parent interrupt.
------------------------

Just call gpiochip_set_chained_irqchip() for all the irqs, and
figure out a way to get the right interrupt hardware offset in the
interrupt handler.

select GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP

Only <linux/gpio/driver.h>

You should not use <linux/gpio.h> in drivers, then you are
doing something wrong.

Why are you keeping the irqs around after requesting?
Use devm_*

I don't like custom irq domains it is messy.
Please do your best to try to use GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP

If you still decide to go with a custom irqdomain, there is
stuff missing, especially the gpiochip_lock_as_irq()
calls from the irqchip .irq_request/release_resources()
callbacks, see the gpiolib.c implementation in the
helpers there for reference.
