Read again:

why do we need 3 different calls to irq_domain_create_linear when you
can *indirect* them with a pointer to the correct structure?

Then why do we need two different behaviours? The same kernel should
run everywhere.

That doesn't answer my question. Please have a *consistent* approach
to your interrupt handling, and work with your ACPI colleagues.
