Actually, well, this one IRQ (the one I start to pass) is already
domain-mapped to the global IRQ numberspace, so that one will
be correct.

However the debug driver patch, i.e. the entire debugfs driver,
is completely irqdomain-unaware and has been broken for
device tree since forever and broken for non-dt builds since
the IRQ numbers were made local.

I guess I'll just have to cook a second patch to fix this up...
