It can work (pending some solution to the iommu stuff), but IMHO it is
strange/hacky to put HW objects like irqdomain on what is a character
struct device with a set major/minor in dev->devt and associated
struct cdev.

Conceptually it makes no sense to me, cdevs are software constructs,
they should never go into HW areas..
