In the commit setting up the qcom/msm pin controller to

d->parent_data on irq_data was valid before calling the
parent function, however irq_chip_eoi_parent() was called
unconditionally which doesn't work with elder Qualcomm
platforms such as APQ8060.

When the drivers/mfd/qcom-pm8xxx.c driver calls
chained_irq_exit() that call will in turn call chip->irq_eoi()
which is set to irq_chip_eoi_parent() by default on a
hierachical IRQ chip, and the parent is pinctrl-msm.c
so that will in turn unconditionally call
irq_chip_eoi_parent() again, but its parent is invalid
so we get the following crash:

 Unnable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
 virtual address 00000010
 pgd = (ptrval)

Implement a local stub just avoiding to call down to
irq_chip_eoi_parent() if d->parent_data is not set.

I find it odd that the pinctrl-msm driver would be the only place that
needs this. But let's start with this.

This driver does something very odd: depending on the SoC and/or the
configuration, some interrupts are either forwarded to a parent
interrupt controller, or terminated at GPIO level for some reason
(probably because it is then signaled as a chained interrupt, or
somehow triggers something else locally). In the latter case, there is
obviously no interrupt parent to talk about.

To my knowledge, this is the only example of such an exotic design
in the tree. Please, let's make sure it stays that way... :-/
