- Interrupt controller support for Dilaog DA9052 PMICs.
This looks very much like it could be replaced with regmap-irq. The code would be slightly less efficient due to the support for sparse interrupt registers but it'd be less code.
regmap-irq has a opaque struct regmap_irq_chip_data which has a member irq_base and this is required for non-primary irqs registration and also the clean-up function regmap_del_irq_chip() requires it. So as of now I will keep the current irq implementation as it is.
I'm not sure how this is relevant to my above comment? The struct is of course opaque since it is only used by the implementation.
No issues on that but it has got irq_base as its member which gets initialize in the function regmap_add_irq_chip() and since this member value is not available to the user how can the mfd dependent modules like touch, battery etc can register for interrupt because during irq registration we add irq_base to the irq nmber for e.g. irq_base + battery_irq
