Yes. It should be fixed everywhere but is not related to this
patch. But I can do a two-patch series first fixing this and then
adding the gyro+accelerometer on top referencing the MFD
pmicintc as parent.

What needs to happen is for the SSBI and SPMI GPIO to use a
hierarchical irqdomain so their GPIO local line offset and hwirq
are the same. Then we can reference the GPIO IRQ lines directly
in a correct manner.
You are not alone with this mess. A lot of hierarchical GPIOs
are wrong. My fail as GPIO maintainer I guess, ouch.
