Remove irq_domain_add_legacy call from mach-mxs.c and have the gpio
driver adopt irqdomain support, so that we can have the mapping
between gpio and irq number available without using virtual_irq_start
and MXS_GPIO_IRQ_START.

Seems like a good thing to do, but with Grant and Rob being better at
irqdomain than me I'd prefer one of them to have a look at this too.

+       irq_base = irq_alloc_descs(-1, 0, 32, numa_node_id());
+       if (irq_base < 0)
+               return irq_base;

+       port->domain = irq_domain_add_legacy(np, 32, irq_base, 0,
+                                            &irq_domain_simple_ops, NULL);

For example I want to understand if it'd be possible to use a
linear domain here.

Unfortunately, not if you care about your irq base and need sequential
irq numbers which is the case for non-DT.
