This looks reasonably sensible to me.  The way irqdomains seem to want
you to encapsulate this stuff is that the internal interrupts of the
chip get an irqdomain and then the children get their resources relative
to that, normally using the MFD helpers to map the hwirqs in the domain
to Linux interrupt numbers.
