Hi Lorenzo,

Happy new year.

The name of this makes me think it's allocating the named fwnode parent, rather that
the named fwnode + setting it's parent.

There aren't all that many calls to irq_domain_named_fwnode(), maybe to avoid challenge
of a new name, just add the parameter to all of them? (25ish)  Mind you the current
pattern for similar cases is a helper, so maybe not.

Or go with something similar to named and have

irq_domain_alloc_named_parented_fwnode()?

I'm not that bothered though if you think the current naming is the best we can do.
