Is this an equivalent change? I thought you are supposed to call of_irq_init
only once so it can see the entire hierarchy. Or is it ok as long as the
top-level controllers are probed first?
Yes, it is equivalent as the GIC will be initialized first. Ideally,
this the exynos controller needs to be moved to drivers/irqchip as well
and this can be removed, but I can't have all the fun.
