The OMAP platform related drives has been already converted to use
irq_alloc_descs(-1, 0, nr_irqs, 0); to map their range (including GPIO,
twl6030, etc).
Neither of these are using or have irq_base passed from board files for
some time now. We still have the defines for the legacy define based
mapping of the ranges, but it is no longer in use.
To be fair: in arch/arm/mach-omap2/ there's one driver which has not
been converted. It is the gpmc (Flash).

I'll add short explanation to the commit message.
