Two things:

- Why do we need three calls to create the same domains depending on
  what firmware is used and kernel configuration?

- who is going to decide whether to select the
  CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY option?

I'd really like to see a statement from the Loongson folks about what
this whole DT stuff is all about. AFAICT, the core ACPICA stuff isn't
even fully merged (i.e. we still rely on arch-specific hacks).

Can you *please* finish what you've started before adding another
layer of quality stuff on top?
