So this is a good idea.

And I'm sceptic about this business. Why isn't this physical-to virtual
mapping business confined to the core MFD driver? But enlighten me.

I believe MFD does not (yet) know about IRQ domains. The wm8994
and 88pm80x drivers do this slightly different by exporting
a foo_request_irq() function that performs the mapping.

Traditionally, an MFD would add an offset to the local IRQ number
to put the VIRQ into the IRQ resource, but this doesn't work when
you have domains other than legacy.
