In general there is another option - save OF-flags and pass them to
__setup_irq() where they can be processed.

Seems yes. But we need to be very careful with this, some of functions could be
called recursively (nested), like:
[d]
static int pcf857x_irq_set_wake(struct irq_data *data, unsigned int on)
{
...
error = irq_set_irq_wake(gpio->irq_parent, on);


Personally, I have nothing against irq_pm_(get|put) :) and thought about similar things
when tried to solve the same problem for omap-gpio driver.
But :(, I have to fall back to irq_bus_lock/sync_unlock, because of [a,b,c] - all above
APIs surrounded by chip_bus_lock/chip_bus_sync_unlock. ([d] - I've not hit it just because
I was lucky).
