Although the changelog should be updated since I get a couple problems 
when trying to enable CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_CHIP without CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN on 
Linus's latest tree:

kernel/irq/generic-chip.c:400:11: error: ‘irq_domain_xlate_onetwocell’ undeclared here (not in a function)
kernel/irq/generic-chip.c: In function ‘irq_gc_get_irq_data’:
kernel/irq/generic-chip.c:522:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘irq_find_mapping’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
