More importantly, the driver should be converted to use an irq_domain
and remove the custom irq_to_tps65910_irq function.
irq_find_mapping() handles the hwirq --> irq lookup and
irq_data->hwirq will always give you the controller's irq number.

When irq_base is -1, then use irq_domain_add_linear() which will also
manage irq_desc allocations for you.  If the driver requires a
specific irq_base then the descs still need to be manually allocated
and use an irq_domain_add_legacy() to set it up. (this is sub-optimal
though; I hope to have a better solution for legacy that also manages
desc allocations just like the other mappings; maybe in the 3.6
timeframe).
