This acpi_irq_domain is the core domain which is the parent domain
of GICv2m or ITS.

acpi_irq_domain points to GICv2 or GICv3 domain when the GIC
is initialized.

since every ITS will have a domain, and there is a mapping
from device id to ITS ID in IORT table, then we can match the
device with the ITS irq domain, does it make sense?
