The linux-next patch 54be566317b6 "gpio-ml-ioh: Support interrupt

+ GFP_KERNEL);
^^^^^^^^^^

The last argument should be a NUMA node, not a GFP_ flag. I'm not
sure what the right fix is. There are currently 5 callers in my
cscope for this function in linux-next.

2 pass GFP_KERNEL which is wrong.
2 pass 0 which maybe should be cpu_to_node(0)?
1 passes -1 which maybe could be NUMA_NO_NODE?

I can understand your saying.
Seeing accepted other drivers, '0' or '-1' is used.
Focusing on GPIO driver, gpio-pca953x.c uses '-1'.

Though I tried to understand source code of irq_alloc_descs,
I can't understand which value we should use.

Could you help me ?
