I'd like to report possible issue related to irq.valid_mask in case if drivers
which are using it will switch to use gpio_irq_chip and new infra.

Now irq.valid_mask is used the following way:
- gpiochip_add_data() -- It will allocate irq.valid_mask
- driver fills irq.valid_mask if required
- driver calls gpiochip_irqchip_add() which will take into account irq.valid_mask
and prevents mapping of invalid IRQs

With current infra gpio irqchip will be created and initialized from gpiochip_add_data
and drivers have no possibility to fill it before that.

Again, for now this is "possible issue".
