gpio: dwapb: Convert driver to using the GPIO-lib-based IRQ-chip
GPIO-lib provides a ready-to-use interface to initialize an IRQ-chip on top of a GPIO chip. It's better from maintainability and readability point of view to use one instead of supporting a hand-written Generic IRQ-chip-based implementation. Moreover the new implementation won't cause much functional overhead but will provide a cleaner driver code. All of that makes the DW APB GPIO driver conversion pretty much justified especially seeing a tendency of the other GPIO drivers getting converted too. Here is what we do in the framework of this commit to convert the driver to using the GPIO-lib-based IRQ-chip interface: 1) IRQ ack, mask and unmask callbacks are locally defined instead of using the Generic IRQ-chip ones. 2) An irq_chip structure instance is embedded into the dwapb_gpio private data. Note we can't have a static instance of that structure since GPIO-lib will add some hooks into it by calling gpiochip_set_irq_hooks(). A warning about that would have been printed by the GPIO-lib code if we used a single irq_chip structure instance for multiple DW APB GPIO controllers. 3) Initialize the gpio_irq_chip structure embedded into the gpio_chip descriptor. By default there is no IRQ enabled so any event raised will be handled by the handle_bad_irq() IRQ flow handler. If DW APB GPIO IP-core is synthesized to have non-shared reference IRQ-lines, then as before the hierarchical and cascaded cases are distinguished by checking how many parental IRQs are defined. (Note irq_set_chained_handler_and_data() won't initialize IRQs, which descriptors couldn't be found.) If DW APB GPIO IP is used on a platform with shared IRQ line, then we simply won't let the GPIO-lib to initialize the parental IRQs, but will handle them locally in the driver. 4) Discard linear IRQ-domain and Generic IRQ-chip initialization, since GPIO-lib IRQ-chip interface will create a new domain and accept a standard IRQ-chip structure pointer based on the setting we provided in the gpio_irq_chip structure. 5) Manually select a proper IRQ flow handler directly in the irq_set_type() callback by calling irq_set_handler_locked() method, since an ordinary (not Generic) irq_chip descriptor is now utilized. Note this shalln't give any regression 6) Alter CONFIG_GPIO_DWAPB kernel config to select CONFIG_GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP instead of CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_CHIP. Note neither 4) nor 5) shall cause a regression of commit 6a2f4b7dadd5 ("gpio: dwapb: use a second irq chip"), since the later isn't properly used here anyway.
