Okay; you'll likely want to use gpio*d*_to_irq(), as gpio_to_irq() is
part of the legacy GPIO infrastructure. It doesn't look like you need
GENERIC_IRQ_CHIP to access gpiod_to_irq(), the existing GPIOLIB
dependency should be enough.

If we did need configuration changes, my preference would be to put
them in a defconfig rather than in the arch Kconfig.

Cheers,

Andrew
