Neither does it on the other architectures.

And yet we are able to synthesise fwnodes and use the whole of the
infrastructure as intended without having to resort to this crap that
was only introduced to cope with 20 year old PPC board files.

Only dead architectures are using irq_set_default_host().

Neither. That's just papering over the core problem.

Either you start creating fwnodes out of thin air, which is what we do
for both x86 and arm64 when using ACPI, or you add support for SBI (or
whatever new spec the RISC-V people come up with) as a provider of
fwnodes.
Anything else looks like a pretty bad regression.

Thanks,
