Currently the GPIO Aggregator does not support interrupts.  This means
that kernel drivers going from a GPIO to an IRQ using gpiod_to_irq(),
and userspace applications using line events do not work.

Add interrupt support by providing a gpio_chip.to_irq() callback, which
just calls into the parent GPIO controller.

Note that this does not implement full interrupt controller (irq_chip)
support, so using e.g. gpio-keys with "interrupts" instead of "gpios"
still does not work.

This is an unconditional call that will allocate the IRQ descriptor

If DEBUG and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG* are not enabled, it's a no-op
(protected by if (0) { ... }).
If CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is enabled, the operation is a no-op if not
enabled dynamically (if (dynamic_checl) { ... }).
If DEBUG (CONFIG_DEBUG_GPIO) is enabled, the output is wanted.

(yes, I've just checked the preprocessor and assembler output ;-).

even if we don't use it. Correct?

It calls .to_irq() of the parent GPIO controller, which is usually
just doing some offset addition.  But that's driver-dependent.

If so, I don't like this.

No worries, desc_to_gpio() and gpiod_to_irq() are only evaluated when
the debug output is wanted.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
