Ok. Renamed.

Interrupts seem to work. I think that's because the mapping is created
when the consumer drivers call request_irq().

>From what I can tell, if we call irq_find_mapping() and there is no
mapping associated with it then we have a spurious irq. If that happens
we'll call handle_generic_irq() with 0 and that will cause
handle_bad_irq() to be called and a debug message to be logged. That
seems like a good outcome.

I think it was just copy/paste without thinking if the variables are
actually used.

Done.

This was just keeping the same code that was already there. I will do
sizeof(chip->config[0]) instead which is more future proof if that array
changes type later on.

Are you suggesting using mfd_add_devices()? At first glance it looks
like that would require an array of mfd_cell structures that do nothing
besides match compatible strings in the DT. Using of_platform_populate()
achieves the same goal and doesn't require an array of mfd_cell
structures for each different pm8xxx chip that comes along, meaning
simpler code.
