Hi Saravana,

Thanks for re-spinning this one.

I think there is some value in having the BEGIN statement containing
the driver name, see below.

There is no guarantee that the calling driver wants BUS_ANY as a token
for its parent. It may work for now, if you only have dependencies to
drivers that only expose a single domain, but that's not a general
purpose check..

At least, please add a comment saying that the new driver may want to
check that the irqdomain it depends on may not be available.

How about:

#define IRQCHIP_PLATFORM_DRIVER_BEGIN(drv_name)	\
static const struct of_device_id __irqchip_match_table_##drv_name = {

which makes it easier to debug when you want to identify specific
structures in an object (otherwise, they all have the same
name...). it is also much more pleasing aesthetically ;-).

Otherwise looks good. When you respin it, it would be good to also
submit one user of this API by converting an existing driver, as I'd
hate to merge something that has no user.

Thanks,
