Yes.

Looks sane. Nits below.

That probably needs to be part of the dumb mask/unmask functions.,
i.e. if no demux interrupt is enabled, the source irq should be
masked.

I don't think you need to set/clear anything. Lets look at that dumb
demux chip as a real electronic circuit

     	     	  |----------------|
		  |                |
     	     	  |  --|Unmasked|--|---- Demux0
		  |  |             |
     SRC irq -----|-- -|Unmasked|--|---- Demux1
		  |  |             |
     	     	  |  --|Unmasked|--|---- Demux2
		  |                |
     	     	  |----------------|

Whether a demultiplexed interrupt is mapped or not is not really
important. The only relevant information is whether its masked or
not. So the default state is masked until a demultiplexed interrupt
gets requested.

Why pointers? A single ulong is certainly enough.

This should go into the new file as well, so it gets compiled out when
not enabled.

So this needs the handling of enabling/disabling the source irq.

+	.name		= "dumb-demux-irq",
+	.irq_mask	= irq_dumb_demux_mask,
+	.irq_unmask	= irq_dumb_demux_unmask,

Makes it simpler to read.

SYMBOL_GPL please

Rest looks good.

Thanks,
