This is the requirement from irq_domain_remove(). This is what we have
in irq_domain_remove():
kernel/irq/irqdomain.c

/*
* This routine is used to remove an irq domain. The caller must ensure
* that all mappings within the domain have been disposed of prior to
* use, depending on the revmap type.
*/
void irq_domain_remove(struct irq_domain *domain)


I am adding the API equivalent to regmap_irq_get_virq() to unmap virtual
irq here.

That's exactlly we are trying to do, unmap interrupt in client level
before destroying domain.
