I see what problem you are trying to solve.

But this is just hiding the problem I'm afraid.

Now thay you override .irq_request_resources()
gpiochip_irq_reqres() will not be called, so then you have
to lock the irq in the driver, with something like:

ret = gpiochip_lock_as_irq(&chip->gc, d->hwirq);
        if (ret)
                goto out;

You also have to implement the .irq_release_resources()
callback and unlock the IRQ there.

Yours,
