This one was imx6ul-14x14-evk, and I had seen a similar crash with mcimx7d-sabre
and imx7d-sdb.

Yes, it does, for both mcimx7d-sabre and mcimx6ul-evk bot tests with qemu.
That makes me wonder - would it make sense to (also) change the calling
code to check if irq_ack is NULL, and call irq_chip_ack_parent if it is ?
