[PATCH] irqdomain: Add documentation for irq_create_of_mapping()
From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Tue Dec 15 2020 - 15:09:57 EST
Add a description for 'irq_create_of_mapping()' and make explicit the fact
that the resources allocated by this function can be freed by calling
'irq_dispose_mapping()' when needed (i.e. error handling path, remove
function, ...)

The wording can certainly be improved.
My goal is only to make clear if patches such as:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201214202117.146293-1-christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx/
are needed or not.
