I have a different perspective. There is no reason to pollute the arch
code with something that is essentially platform specific.
irqchip_init is the logical place to probe for an irqchip, and I fail to
see the point of sticking this code somewhere else. Why would ACPI be so
special that it requires additional hooks in the arch code?
