Rob had suggested several solutions, including using 
of_find_device_by_node(), however updating of_irq_init_cb_t was 
indicated to be the better way. I had intentionally not updated 
IRQCHIP_DECLARE() because it would ignore the 3rd argument we passed to 
it (platform_device *) so I thought.

If I am spinning a v6 using of_find_device_by_node() would that be 
acceptable to you?
