When an irqchip driver uses irq_domain_push_irq(), all irqs should be
statically created by the irqchip.
If a device tries to allocate an irq on-the-fly, irq_domain_alloc_irqs()
is called. It allocates struct irq_data and invokes .alloc() hook
passing fwspec as its argument. This is probably not what the irqchip
expects (unless .alloc can call it recursively).
This issue could happen when a device tries to get irq after
irq_domain_create_hierarchy(), but before irq_domain_push_irq().
To avoid the race, add IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_NO_CREATE flag. This flag
prevents devices from creating irqs. Devices are only allowed to get
already existing irqs.
