Yes, I agree that this does sound a bit odd, but ...

The above means that if someone calls of_irq_get() (or
platform_get_irq()), before request_irq(), then this will call
irq_create_of_mapping() and hence, call irq_set_irq_type. So should
irq_create_fwspec_mapping() be setting the type in the first place? I
can see it is convenient to do it here.

Right. May be we can look at the various entry points to the chip
operators to get a feel for which public APIs need to be handled.
