gpiolib: allow gpio irqchip to map irqs dynamically
Now IRQ mappings are always created for all (allowed) GPIOs in gpiochip in
gpiochip_irqchip_add_key() which goes against the idea of SPARSE_IRQ and,
as result, leads to:
- increasing of memory consumption for IRQ descriptors most of which will
never ever be used (espessially on platform with a high number of GPIOs).
(sizeof(struct irq_desc) == 256 on my tested platforms)
- imposibility to use GPIO irqchip APIs by gpio drivers when HW implements
GPIO IRQ functionality as IRQ crossbar/router which has only limited
number of IRQ outputs (example from [1], all GPIOs can be mapped on only 8
IRQs).
Hence, remove static IRQ mapping code from gpiochip_irqchip_add_key() and
instead replace irq_find_mapping() with irq_create_mapping() in
gpiochip_to_irq(). Also add additional gpiochip_irqchip_irq_valid() calls
in gpiochip_to_irq() and gpiochip_irq_map().
After this change gpio2irq mapping will happen the following way when GPIO
irqchip APIs are used by gpio driver:
- IRQ mappings will be created statically if driver passes first_irq>0
vlaue in gpiochip_irqchip_add_key().
- IRQ mappings will be created dynamically from gpio_to_irq() or
of_irq_get().
Tested on am335x-evm and dra72-evm-revc.
- dra72-evm-revc: number of created irq mappings decreased from 402 -> 135
Mem savings 267*256 = 68352 (66kB)
- am335x-evm: number of created irq mappings decreased from 188 -> 63
Mem savings 125*256 = 32000 (31kB)
