Please order them so:

+ struct irq_data *data;
+ unsigned int nr_irqs;
+ int virq;

Much simpler to read.

No tail comments please.

We should neither use irq_default_domain nor have an
ipi_default_domain.

Double semicolon

This does only initialize the first virq data. What about the others?

That wants to explain that it actually destroys a number of virqs not
just the primary one.
