This doesn't seem right.

For a start, d->hwirq_max is 0 when the domain is backed by a radix
tree. Also, nothing says that what you read from the DT is something
that should be directly meaningful to the irqdomain. A driver could
well call into this and perform some extra processing on the data
before it lands into the irqdomain.

In general, this looks like DT validation code, and I'm not keen on
that in the core code.

Thanks,

	M.
