Thanks for review.

You're right, it make no sense to setup a irqchip without having a
upstream irq. I will fix this for a v2.

AFAK, if it is a irqchip/irq_controller it can be used as a irq-parent for
other devices. The irq itself can be setup without irq_controller must
be set. E.g. Inform the System about a changed gpio state.

Kind regards,
