Yes. You would do something like this:

- In the main GIC code:
	if (v2m_present()) {
        	v2m_init(&gic_chip);
        }

- In the v2m code:
	static struct irq_chip_v2m_chip;
	void v2m_init(struct irq_chip *gic_chip)
        {
        	[...]
        	v2m_chip = *gic_chip;
                v2m_chip.mask = v2m_irq_mask;
                v2m_chip.unmask = v2m_irq_unmask;
                [...]
        }

Basically, you inherit a number of default methods, only overloading the
ones that are different. The rest of your driver is mostly unchanged.

This preserves the current probing structure, and avoids exposing
private methods outside of irq-gic.c (preventing people from doing silly
things with an unsuspecting interrupt controller...).
