Gah! And I sent a second series about the same time for genirq with a correct
subject line...

Let's consider the following stack trace

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

Here a GPIO device - that is also an irq chip - is unbound (this is a testing
module unbound during a test-case but it can be anything else, like an I2C
expander for which the driver is unloaded) while some users called
request_irq() on its interrupts (this is orthogonal to gpiod_get() and doesn't
take a reference to the module, so nothing is stopping us from unloading it)
and didn't call free_irq() before the device went down (they don't have to,
they can't know about the unbinding).

The irq chip disposes of all mappings held by its domain and then tears down
the domain. This looks fine from the interrupt subsystem point of view. The
mappings are gone, so there's nothing in the maple tree, when the users
eventually do call free_irq(), they look up the mapping, get a NULL and return.

KASAN doesn't report any bugs, kmemleak doesn't show any other leaks, the only
problem here seems to be the procfs leak which this patch addresses, unless I'm
missing something - my knowledge of this part is limited.

I hope it makes sense, if it does, I can resend the patch with a more detailed
message.
