Maybe I'm missing something, or maybe we're just lucky and nobody uses

A single notifier per irq .....
So what about two drivers wanting to use this notifier, but sharing an

It sounds to me like this notifier was misdesigned from the very start,
and it should always have supported multiple notifiers.
