Using IRQCHIP_DECLARE lets fw_devlink know that it should not wait for
these interrupt controllers to be populated as struct devices. Without
this change, fw_devlink=on will make the consumers of these interrupt
controllers wait for the struct device to be added and thereby block the
consumers' probes forever. Converting to IRQCHIP_DECLARE addresses boot
issues on imx25 with fw_devlink=on that were reported by Martin.
This also removes a lot of boilerplate code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
