Actually, it turns out to be not that hard, because twl doesn't actually
make use of the IRQ domain stuff:

    mfd: twl-core: Add initial DT support for twl4030/twl6030

    [grant.likely@secretlab.ca: Fix IRQ_DOMAIN dependency in kconfig]

Adding any dependency - especially one which wouldn't be enabled - for
a new feature which wasn't required before is going to break existing
users, so this shouldn't have been done in the first place.

A better fix to preserve existing users would've been as below - yes
it means more ifdefs, but if irq domain is to remain a DT only thing
then we're going to end up with _lots_ of this stuff.

I'd much prefer to see irq domain become more widely available so it
doesn't require these ifdefs everywhere.
Your patch below looks like a correct fix to me to the problem
you and Grazvydas are seeing:
