One suggestion for improvement below, which needs changes to the
irqchip core code, though.

As the driver doesn't care about the properties of the clock, but
just needs to enable them, I think it would be worthwhile to replace
the explicit clock handling by Runtime PM.
But that needs access to the struct device pointer.
Of course that can be done later (see below).

While platform_irqchip_probe() has access to the platform_device,
it does not pass that to the driver's initialization function, so
that function does not have access to the device framework.
Hence it can not be used for interrupt controllers that are part of a
Power Domain, as, unlike clocks, Power Domains can only be controlled
from Runtime PM, and thus require access to a struct device pointer.
I think it would be good to fix this sooner rather than later; there
are only a handful of users of this interface yet.
