On all Samsung SoCs known to me, there is no GPIO bank which have both
eint_wkup and eint_gpio functions at the same time, so there is no way
that bank->irq_domain could be overwritten.
On S3C64xx, the arrays in domain data are necessary to work around
crazy layout of pin banks which do not fully correspond to EINT banks
in the controller.
So, in general, I don't think there is really any problem with this
driver at the moment. If, in future, a SoC shows up with both IRQ
types in the same pin bank, then it will have to be reworked, but I
don't see why such thing could show up in a SoC, because it wouldn't
really add any value.
Best regards,
Tomasz
