For exynos4, all the interrupts originating from GIC are statically
mapped to start from 32 in the linux virq space (GIC SPI interrupts
start from 64). In the above code, since irq_base would be 0 for
exynos4, the interrupt mapping is not working correctly. In your
previous version of the patch, you have given a option to the platform
code to choose the offset. Could that option be added to this series
also. Or a provision to use platform specific translate function
instead of the irq_domain_simple translator.

Thanks,
Thomas.
