It's a bit sad to have a pointerm turn it back to a irq number, look it
up just to get back the chip data in there :-)

Either we should create an mpic_from_irqdata() which itself uses
irq_data_get_irq_chip_data() or just change mpic_from_irq() if we decide
we can always call it with "data" instead of "irq"

Do we really need that gymnastic to get to desc->status from irq_data ?

Again, we're going back to a number and then looking it up again... bad.

I don't see off hand a data -> desc accessor, but it also looks like it
should be trivial to add. Thomas, what do you reckon ?

Similar.
