This GPIO controller is used on UniPhier SoC family. It also serves as an interrupt controller, but interrupt signals are just delivered to the parent irqchip without any latching or OR'ing. This type of hardware can be well described with hierarchy IRQ domain. One unfortunate thing for this device is that the interrupt mapping to the interrupt parent is not contiguous. I asked how DT can describe interrupt mapping between two irqchips [1], but I could not find a good solution (at least in the framework level). In fact, irqchip drivers using hierarchy domain generally hard-code the DT binding of their parent. After tackling on several approaches such as hard-code of hwirqs, irq_domain_push_irq(), I ended up with a vendor specific property. If we come up with a good idea to support this in the framework, we can migrate over to it, but we can live with a driver-level solution for now.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
