You really cannot just dump this like this. This requires
documentation so that architecture maintainers can move over to this.
I appreciate that this area is pretty poorly documented, but we need
to start somewhere.

const, please.

Maybe we should consider a flow that does not require this dummy
callbacks.

Really, this should be EDGE.

What is the purpose of this callback? Firmware shouldn't be involved
in IPIs at all, and since you only have one cell, you can use the
default path. This is also a dependency on CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY.

Why should be parent_virq be unique? I also see nothing that checks
that this is a per-CPU interrupt. If anything, this needs documenting.

Urgh. For a start, please use the irq_domain_create_* version, as this
shouldn't be DT specific. Then, don't use a NULL fwnode, as this
results in a "default domain", which nobody sane should ever use
anymore. Also, defaulting to BITS_PER_LONG is a lot of interrupts for
not much (most archs use only a handful). You may want to consider
this being a parameter, and cap it at BITS_PER_LONG.

Which is NULL (see above).

Thanks,
