This function does not need to be exposed in a public header: as
proposed for the bcm2835 and armada-370-xp IRQ controller drivers, the
driver should directly do handle_arch_irq = fpga_handle_irq, and
therefore there is no need for the machine desc structure to reference
fpga_handle_irq anymore.

I don't think this function needs to be exported. Just move the
compatible string to drivers/irqchip/irqchip.c and instead of calling
of_irq_init(), call irqchip_init().

This will leave only the fpga_irq_init() function, which we could get
rid of once the non-DT support is removed.

Best regards,

Thomas
