Ugh. This isn't easy. The legacy mapping really needs all the

Feel free to merge this patch. I don't have the time to look at this now
so I take a look at the ioapic later.

There's no rush here. I can leave it as-is with IRQ_DOMAIN turned off
for x86 for now.

Turns out I have to enable IRQ_DOMAIN for x86 because the TI TWL4030
driver needs it. I do need to apply this patch. Until something
better can be implemented, can I change ioapic_add_ofnode() so that it
allocates all irq_descs immediately. It's not ideal, but every other
approach I've looked at results in nasty hacks.

Looking at the ioapic code, it appears to handle preallocated
irq_descs gracefully.

Please merge your initial patch as-it.

Does adding this loop help (apologies if it is whitespace damaged, I
cut&paste it):

It is not 32. If I remember correctly the first ioapic had 24 pins so
did the second. This is ioapic specifc.
