Nit: Please don't call this just "parent". We have parent fields in
irq_data and irq_domain structures, and they always are a pointer to the
same type, indicating some form of stacking. Here, we're pointing to a
different type altogether...

How about calling it "dev", or "device" instead? It would make it much
clearer that when crossing that pointer, we're in another subsystem
altogether.

I'll come back to the rest of the patch a bit later, but I wanted to put
that one out right away... ;-)

Thanks,

M.
