A number of irqchip implementations are (ab)using the irqdomain

This is pretty bad, but it also feels pretty crap to force these
drivers to allocate their own irqchip_fwid when they already have
a proper fwnode.

Instead, let's teach the irqdomain allocator about ACPI device
nodes, and add some lovely name generation code... Tested on
an arm64 D05 system.


Thanks

FWIW, since I reported the issue:
