So that function today looks like this:
static void gpiochip_hierarchy_setup_domain_ops(struct irq_domain_ops *ops)
{
ops->activate = gpiochip_irq_domain_activate;
ops->deactivate = gpiochip_irq_domain_deactivate;
ops->alloc = gpiochip_hierarchy_irq_domain_alloc;
ops->free = irq_domain_free_irqs_common;
/*
* We only allow overriding the translate() function for
* hierarchical chips, and this should only be done if the user
* really need something other than 1:1 translation.
*/
if (!ops->translate)
ops->translate = gpiochip_hierarchy_irq_domain_translate;
}
(...)
- ops->free = irq_domain_free_irqs_common;
(...)
> + if (!ops->free)

Marc Z is working on cleaning up the way that gpiolib is (ab)using
irqchips. We definitely need his ACK if we do things like this.
This doesn't look like one of the big offenders to me, but I want
to make sure we don't create new problems while Marc is trying
to solve the old ones.
