I'm still unsure why we can't use IRQ facility from gpio-regmap.
Can you have a look there?

With that being said, I'm not sure that the patch that exposing gpio_chip
from gpio-regmap is justified.

The whole GPIO rework needs a bit more routine work (resplitting, refactoring,
et cetera), so later we may see clearer what's going on.
