No, it should not.  Any situation where it does is a bug.

Correct.  That's the intent.  My new series flushes out irq_domain quite a
bit better and gets all architectures doing the same thing if they use
irq_domains.  I've done some testing on both CONFIG_OF and !CONFIG_OF builds,
but I'm going to do some more to make sure I've not missed anything.

I don't think so.  There may be a file or two that break because they're
not including everything they need, but I don't think anything in the
header requires it.

The irq_domain code is well isolated.  The header file doesn't need to
be including it.
