Yes, typo.

That implies there's always an IRQ domain for this chip. Right now, my
patch only creates an IRQ domain when the GPIO controller is instantiated
from DT; there is no domain when instantiated as a platform device from a
board file. I suppose that really should change, but:

Some board files initialize platform devices as follows:

./arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-seaboard.c:162:	.irq = TEGRA_GPIO_TO_IRQ(TEGRA_GPIO_ISL29018_IRQ),
./arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-seaboard.c:186:	.irq = TEGRA_GPIO_TO_IRQ(TEGRA_GPIO_CDC_IRQ),
./arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-harmony.c:104:	.irq = TEGRA_GPIO_TO_IRQ(TEGRA_GPIO_CDC_IRQ),

Is there a way to make that work if there is no static IRQ numbering and
hence the compile-time macro TEGRA_GPIO_TO_IRQ() doesn't exist?

For Tegra, IRQ domain support (CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN) is only enabled via
CONFIG_USE_OF, so for non-DT builds isn't enabled. I guess we could
easily make CONFIG_ARCH_TEGRA select CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN though.

The sooner we switch to DT-only the better!

Is the hwirq field valid when there isn't an IRQ domain?

Thanks for the feedback.
