Sorry that I am late with the "review" but I only now noticed this
change when I was following the references from PM8008 PMIC patch mail.

Do I read this correctly - this function should map the main status bit
(given in i) to the (sub)IRQ register, right? How does this work for
cases where one bit corresponds to more than one sub-register? Or do I
misunderstand the purpose of this function? (This is the case with both
the BD70528 and BD71828).

How does this work with the case where we have many subregs pointed by
single main-status register bit? If I read this correctly, then the
chip->num_regs can be greater than amount of meaningful main-status
bits and thus greater than amount of map entries.

I don't have BD71828 or BD70528 at home so I haven't tested this. So
hopefully I misunderstand something - but if I don't, then this change
will break the existing main-IRQ functionality. I will visit the office
later this week and I'll see if I have a chance to test this - but I
hope you can check your change still supports the case where one main
status IRQ bit signals more than one sub-register with active IRQs.
