Hi Lee,

What base is this?
This function takes an Linux irq number. That number is a virtual
irq number, which has nothing to do with the hardware. For example
a platform could look like this:

linux irq   device          base   device irq
---------------------------------------------
0-63        SoC             0      0-63
64-127      SoC-GPIO        64     0-63
128-191     CPCAP           128    0-63

For the above example the function would map 128-191 to 0-63 as
used by the device.
Could it be used to avoid some calculations in cpcap_sense_irq()?
No.
