I understand Arnd, yet I wanted to avoid any platform data if possible, as this
is a motherboard, it will not be plugged anywhere else with different
parameters.

What would you say if I did this :
 - remove the gpio
 - use IORESOURCE_IRQ(0) as the parent irq (as you suggested)
 - use IORESOURCE_IRQ(1) as the base_irq
   => this resource would be optional
        - if exists, use it as base_irq
        - if doesn't exist, let base_irq = 0

Will that look correct ?

Cheers.
