The gpiolib is unique in the way it uses intermediate fwspecs
when feeding an interrupt specifier to the parent domain, as it
relies on the populate_parent_alloc_arg() callback to perform
a dynamic allocation.

THis is pretty inefficient (we free the structure almost immediately),
and the only reason this isn't a stack allocation is that our
ThunderX friend uses MSIs rather than a FW-constructed structure.

Let's solve it by providing a new type composed of the union
of a struct irq_fwspec and a msi_info_t, which satisfies both
requirements. This allows us to use a stack allocation, and we
can move the handful of users to this new scheme.

Also perform some additional cleanup, such as getting rid of the
stub versions of the irq_domain_translate_*cell helpers, which
are never used when CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY isn't selected.

Tested on a Tegra186.

This bit looks fine to me. I will test it over the weekend.

This looks very appetizing to me but:

drivers/pinctrl/qcom/pinctrl-spmi-gpio.c | 15 ++++-----

This seems to have some changes to
->populate_parent_alloc_arg not even in linux-next,
so I get confused, what are the prerequisites? (Probably
something I already reviewed, but...)

Also: don't you also need to fix something in
drivers/pinctrl/qcom/pinctrl-ssbi-mpp.c?
the way I remember it it was quite similar to spmi-gpio
but I may be mistaken.

Odd. This patch is on top of irqchip-next, which is itself already in
-next (you got me worried and I just pulled everything to check).

No, this one is graceful enough to use
gpiochip_populate_parent_fwspec_twocell(), which is directly provided
by gpiolib and thus addressed directly by this patch. Same thing for
the spmi-mpp version, which uses the fourcell variant.

HTH,

I confused it with pinctrl-ssbi-gpio.c. Simple beginners mistake.
