But each series *must* at the very least compile in isolation.

You could try something like this, which results in a kernel that
fully links with defconfig and no additional patch:

diff --git a/arch/loongarch/include/asm/irq.h b/arch/loongarch/include/asm/irq.h
index ca468564fc85..4479d95867ec 100644

 int pch_pic_acpi_init(struct irq_domain *parent,

 int find_pch_pic(u32 gsi);

But the other issue is that you seem to call this function from two
different locations. This cannot be right, as there should be only one
probe order, and not multiple.
