The reason for the complex handling is that any line can any one irq of
the irqs of the gpio core or no irq at all - completely independenly of
each other.

E.g. we can have a a system where:
- line 0 has no irq
- line 1 has irq 7
- line 2 has irq 9
- line 3 has irq 7
- line 4 has no irq
- line 5 has irq 4
- etc.

That is the reason why the "imap" of property (originating from the
PROM) contains an index that maps a line to one of the irqs of the core
or indicates no irq at all.

Yes, I use the bgpio-lock for that but I missed using it in the irq 
handler - added.

Not an else clause per se, as we need to loop through all the lines and
only treat the ones that should be triggered by the given underlying
irq. I'll add a comment on what it is all about.

On the other hand, if no line whatsoever matches it might be good to add
a warning about it. I am not sure if it could legitimately happen on an
SMP system if the irq is unmapped at one CPU at the same time as another
after another CPU has entered this interrupt handler but before taking
the lock protecting the uirq structure.

The reason for doing it at irq_map and not in probe is that one
typical hardware setup for this core is that it has irqs that are shared
with pretty much all other cores in the system. Therefore, if this
drivers requests all its irqs in the probe function, pretty much all the
drivers for the other cores in the system that were not lucky enough to
request their irq before this driver will fail their probes in such a
hardware setup. This driver can not share irq:s so even if the other
drivers can handle shared irqs they are out of luck if this driver is
probed first.

That is why only the irqs that are actually used should be requested and
thus why the driver does it on demand instead of in the probe.
