We need similar changes in irq_domain_set_hwirq_and_chip()
because we use IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY in RISC-V.

These changes in irq_modify_status() need to be dropped to support
the above changes in irq_domain_set_hwirq_and_chip().

Let me know if you have alternate suggestions instead of the above changes.
