In that case you should name the block gpc-imx7d rather than gpcv2 and
symbol as GPC_IMX7D rather than IMX_GPCV2.

You didn't get my point.  Rather than defining it as a global variable,
we should try to keep imx_gpcv2_irq as an internal data structure to
irqchip driver, and use well-defined interface to access the data from
pm driver when necessary.
