I really dislike this practice. Even if these 3 interrupts are well
known (their hwirqs are set in stone), you should be able to directly
create the interrupt from the rest of the kernel code.

All you have to do is to expose the fwnode_handle in the arch code
(just like you do for other interrupt controllers), retrieve the
domain and perform the mapping. No need for any extra arch-specific
API in the irqchip controller.

It would also be good to mention that this irqchip driver also probes
the all the rest of the interrupt hierarchy.

Thanks,

M.
