Hi Sebastian,

I think this functionality has changed at some point or maybe
everybody copied the same bad code over and over. I see a lot of
legacy gpio drivers calling irq_create_mapping in their to_irq()
functions. Linus Walleij asked me to create the mappings at probe
time. Please see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/10/154 and the
subsequent discussion in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/24/232
