Does it really?

The handler function I'm looking at is


static void gpio_irq_handler(unsigned int irq, struct irq_desc *desc)
{
        int irqoff;
        BUG_ON(irq < IRQ_DOVE_GPIO_0_7 || irq > IRQ_DOVE_HIGH_GPIO);

        irqoff = irq <= IRQ_DOVE_GPIO_16_23 ? irq - IRQ_DOVE_GPIO_0_7 :
                3 + irq - IRQ_DOVE_GPIO_24_31;

        orion_gpio_irq_handler(irqoff << 3);
        if (irq == IRQ_DOVE_HIGH_GPIO) {
                orion_gpio_irq_handler(40);
                orion_gpio_irq_handler(48);
                orion_gpio_irq_handler(56);
        }
}

My reading of this is a manual hardwired implementation of a
primary handler that triggers the secondary handler four times
when it's called with a specific argument.

If you want to keep that behavior, this handler cannot be
generic across all mvebu socs, whereas registering four
chained handlers for the same primary interrupt would have
the same effect at a very small runtime overhead without the
need for any special case.
