That's not exactly what I had in my mind.

You just changed the code to write to another global variable. This is
not the best practice and might cause hard to track issues in future,
when extending the driver.

>From what I can see, the best solution would be to add .irq_chip field
to samsung_pin_bank struct. Then exynos_wkup_irq_map() could access it
through h->host_data pointer and exynos_irq_demux_eint16_31() could also
retrieve the irq chip through bank struct without the need too add chip
field to exynos_muxed_weint_data struct.

As a side effect, it would be possible to consolidate
exynos_wkup_irqd_ops with exynos_gpio_irqd_ops, which currently only
differ in irq chip passed as argument to irq_set_chip_and_handler() in
.map() callback.
