Even better is to see if we can convert the driver to
GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP which moves the handling of IRQ mapping
to the gpiolib core. This works for all simple cascading GPIO-with-IRQ
controllers with a local mask register. (Not when the system intcon
and GPIO is mashed up though.)

But no hurry with that.
