Sure, even I think these are strange looking callbacks. I will drop
these callbacks in the next patch revision.

Okay, I will drop the 'parent_virq' parameter.

Okay, I will change the order.

I had kept in-case some driver wanted to create fewer (< 32)
muxed IPIs.

Once we remove ipi_mux_pre/post_handle() callbacks, the
"ops" will be pointless and we will be able to remove one level
of indirection here.

We certainly need a mux irqchip to implement the
mask/unmask semantics for muxed IPIs.

Sure, I will update.

I see. I will remove these in the next patch revision.

This is added only to pass back driver data in ipi_mux_send().

I am going to remove the "parent_virq" parameter itself so this
will go away.

Sure, I will fix this.
