It looks like irqchip.h is using __typecheck() which is really
an internal part of the implementation of min() and max().
The patched version doesn't use it - hence the build fail.
I can re-instate it, but this all looks wrong to me.

The type of typecheck_irq_init_cb is the same as that of fn_type (although
they are defined separately).
Both headers seem to be testing the type - and it must match both.
So if the test in of.h worked the one in irqchip.h wouldn't have been added.
So I suspect it doesn't actually do anything - the RHS is NULL, the type
probably doesn't matter.

Possibly:
		.data = {sizeof ((fn) == (fn_type)(fn)) ? fn : fn }
would actually generate the required compile-time error.
