Subject: [PATCH v2 14/14] Documentation: Update irq_domain.rst with new lookup APIs
Date: Mon,  2 Aug 2021 17:26:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210802162630.2219813-15-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210802162630.2219813-1-maz@kernel.org>

Catch up with the recent irqdomain updates, and document
{generic_,}handle_domain_irq(), irq_resolve_mapping() as well
as the deprecation of some of the older APIs.
