I'm not happy with this patch.

The gpiolib IRQchip abstraction was created to pull common
code into the gpiolib library so I get less mess of GPIO IRQ drivers
spread out all over the place.

This does the reverse and start to spread it all over the place again.

Can you think about a way to try to centralize what you are trying to
do into the gpiolib with a flag or special registration call or
similar?

I guess I don't understand the context, I guess this is part of the
problem Jerome is discussing with me in another thread.
