The current API functions create an irq_domain and also publish this
newly created to domain. Once an irq_domain is published, consumers can
request IRQ in order to use them.
Some interrupt controller drivers have to perform some more operations
with the created irq_domain in order to have it ready to be used.
For instance:
- Allocate generic irq chips with irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips()
- Retrieve the generic irq chips with irq_get_domain_generic_chip()
- Initialize retrieved chips: set register base address and offsets,
set several hooks such as irq_mask, irq_unmask, ...
With the newly introduced irq_domain_alloc_generic_chips(), an interrupt
controller driver can use the irq_domain_chip_generic_info structure and
set the init() hook to perform its generic chips initialization.
In order to avoid a window where the domain is published but not yet
ready to be used, handle the generic chip creation (i.e the
irq_domain_alloc_generic_chips() call) before the domain is published.
