Some background infos: This patch fixes an issue when using max77620 gpio driver. The issue is that, max77620 doesn't have a dedicated GPIO interrupt mask register. If you want to mask a separate GPIO interrupt on max77620, you need to do that in it's type register(starting from register address 0x36 - 0x3D). So this means we can't find a proper register for "mask_base" property, while in current regmap-irq.c, it updates mask registers assuming "mask_base" is always provided. Maybe this patch is not the cleanest way to fix the issue, e.g: some chip's mask register address is zero, in that case, could you help to suggest what is the right way?
