Yes.

Good point.

- IRQ0 is for events (interrupts) from GPIOs 0 to 3.
- IRQ1 is for events (interrupts) from GPIOs 4 to 11.
- IRQ2 is for events (interrupts) from GPIOs 12 to 15.
- IRQ3 is for events (interrupts) from GPIOs 24 to 25.

Unfortunately, It's not that simple. The GPIO ports (as defined by the
groups of registers that do GPIO direction/input/output) are organised
like this:

- GPIO port 0 starts at GPIO 0 and is 16 GPIOs long.
- GPIO port 1 starts at GPIO 16 and is 16 GPIOs long.
- GPIO port 2 starts at GPIO 32 and is 16 GPIOs long.
- GPIO port 3 starts at GPIO 48 and is 16 GPIOs long.
- GPIO port 4 starts at GPIO 64 and is 16 GPIOs long.
- GPIO port 5 starts at GPIO 80 and is 16 GPIOs long.
- GPIO port 6 starts at GPIO 96 and is 18 GPIOs long.
- GPIO port 7 starts at GPIO 114 and is 14 GPIOs long.

(They didn't even make it so that each one has 16 GPIOs...)

As you can see, only a few GPIOs are connected to interrupt logic; most
of them are in port 0, and the remaining two are in port 1.

Forthermore, the GPIO ports don't all have the same set of registers, so
that the register layout of each can't be predicted by the offset of the
first register.

Hmm, well, if the unit addresses simply go from 0 to 7, rather than
encoding offsets, this could work. But it won't help much with the IRQ
problem.
