Since 041284181226 ("of/irq: Allow matching of an interrupt-map local
to an interrupt controller"), a handful of interrupt controllers have
stopped working correctly. This is due to the DT exposing a non-sensical
interrupt-map property, and their drivers relying on the kernel ignoring
this property.

Since we cannot realistically fix this terrible behaviour, add a quirk
for the limited set of devices that have implemented this monster,
and document that this is a pretty bad practice.

Thanks for the patch. As far as I can tell, this restores the old
behaviour from 5.15 for "realtek,rtl-intc" and things work as
expected.

Thanks for testing. Let's see what Rob says about this approach (I bet
he won't be thrilled...).
