And for each function that of_irq_parse_pci() calls and returns status from the
function call you would need to document that behavior, and so on recursively.

For example, you would need to document of_irq_parse_one().  And that returns status
from more function calls, so you would need to document of_irq_parse_oldworld(),
of_parse_phandle_with_args(), of_irq_parse_raw(), and then anything they call.
