I'm not an IRQ expert, but I think this is an issue regardless of
CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ, isn't it? Anything used by an IRQ handler should
be initialized before the handler is registered. CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ
is just a way to help find latent problems.

Previously we registered rockchip_pcie_subsys_irq_handler() and
rockchip_pcie_client_irq_handler() before the PCIe clocks were
enabled. That's a problem because they depend on those clocks being
enabled, and your patch fixes that.

rockchip_pcie_legacy_int_handler() depends on rockchip->irq_domain,
which isn't initialized until rockchip_pcie_init_irq_domain().
Previously we registered rockchip_pcie_legacy_int_handler() as the
handler for the "legacy" IRQ before rockchip_pcie_init_irq_domain().

I think you patch *also* fixes that problem, right?

I think this is also an issue with the following other drivers. They all
set the handler to something that uses an IRQ domain before they
actually initialize the domain:

# nwl --------------------------------------------------------------
nwl_pcie_probe
nwl_pcie_parse_dt
pcie->irq_intx = platform_get_irq_byname(pdev, "intx")
irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(pcie->irq_intx, nwl_pcie_leg_handler)
nwl_pcie_bridge_init
devm_request_irq
nwl_pcie_init_irq_domain
pcie->legacy_irq_domain = irq_domain_add_linear()

nwl_pcie_leg_handler
irq_find_mapping(pcie->legacy_irq_domain)


# altera --------------------------------------------------------------
altera_pcie_probe
altera_pcie_parse_dt
irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(altera_pcie_isr)
altera_pcie_init_irq_domain
pcie->irq_domain = irq_domain_add_linear()

altera_pcie_isr
irq_find_mapping(pcie->irq_domain)


# ks --------------------------------------------------------------
ks_pcie_config_legacy_irq
irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(ks_pcie_legacy_irq_handler)
ks_pcie->legacy_irq_domain = irq_domain_add_linear()

ks_pcie_legacy_irq_handler
ks_pcie_handle_legacy_irqirq_linear_revmap(ks_pcie->legacy_irq_domain)


# tegra --------------------------------------------------------------
tegra_pcie_msi_setup
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PCI_MSI)) {
tegra_allocate_domains
parent = irq_domain_create_linear()
msi->domain = pci_msi_create_irq_domain(parent)
}
irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(tegra_pcie_msi_irq)

tegra_pcie_msi_irq
irq_find_mapping(msi->domain->parent)


Tegra is a little wierd because the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PCI_MSI) only
covers the IRQ domain alloc; it doesn't cover setting the handler. So
if CONFIG_PCI_MSI is not set, we don't alloc the IRQ domain, but we
still set a handler that *uses* the IRQ domain. That seems somewhat
broken.
