Hi Linus,

The hierarchical parts of MSM pinctrl/GPIO is only
used when the device tree has a "wakeup-parent" as
a phandle, but the .irq_disable and .irq_eoi are anyway

Qualcomm chipsets.

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)
 [00000010] *pgd=00000000
 Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
 (...)
 PC is at irq_chip_eoi_parent+0x4/0x10
 LR is at pm8xxx_irq_handler+0x1b4/0x2d8

If we solve this crash by avoiding to call up to
irq_chip_eoi_parent(), the machine will hang and get
reset by the watchdog, because of semantic issues,
probably inside irq_chip.

As a solution, just assign the .irq_disable and .irq_eoi
condtionally if we are actually using a wakeup parent.

ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Noticed that the previous solution doesn't actually work,
  the machine hangs and reboots intead (even if it got rid of
  the most obvious crash). Make a more thorough solution that
  completely avoids using these callbacks if we don't have
  a parent.

What is the problem with disable exactly?

- v1 was called "Guard irq_eoi()"

I find it really odd to have the enable callback, but not the disable.
What is the rational for that? Can we drop the enable as well for old
platforms and only use mask/unmask instead?
