From 67196fea0fcef92b25608882f62f3985bc59f1fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Shevchenko Date: Tue, 9 Mar 2021 11:37:31 +0200 Subject: irqdomain: Introduce irq_domain_create_simple() API Linus Walleij pointed out that ird_domain_add_simple() gained additional functionality and can't be anymore replaced with a simple conditional. In preparation to upgrade GPIO library to use fwnode, introduce irq_domain_create_simple() API which is functional equivalent to the existing irq_domain_add_simple(), but takes a pointer to the struct fwnode_handle as a parameter. While at it, amend documentation to mention irq_domain_create_*() functions where it makes sense.
