Devices can provide multiple interrupt lines. One reason for this is that a device has multiple subfunctions, each providing its own interrupt line. Another reason is that a device can be designed to be used (also) on a system where some of the interrupts can be routed to another processor. A line often further acts as a demultiplex for specific interrupts and has it's respective set of interrupt (status, mask, ack, ...) registers. Regmap supports the handling of these registers and demultiplexing interrupts, but the interrupt domain code ends up assigning the same name for the per interrupt line domains. This causes a naming collision in the debugFS code and leads to confusion, as /proc/interrupts shows two separate interrupts with the same domain name and hardware interrupt number. Instead of adding a workaround in regmap or driver code, allow giving a name suffix for the domain name when the domain is created. Add a name_suffix field in the irq_domain_info structure and make irq_domain_instantiate() use this suffix if it is given when a domain is created.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
