Merge tag 'irqchip-fixes-5.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/maz/arm-platforms into irq/urgent
Pull irqchip fixes from Marc Zyngier:
- Work around a bad GIC integration on a Renesas platform, where the
interconnect cannot deal with byte-sized MMIO accesses
- Cleanup another Renesas driver abusing the comma operator
- Fix a potential GICv4 memory leak on an error path
- Make the type of 'size' consistent with the rest of the code in
__irq_domain_add()
- Fix a regression in the Armada 370-XP IPI path
- Fix the build for the obviously unloved goldfish-pic
- Some documentation fixes
