Unlike OF framework, the irqchip probe using IRQCHIP_ACPI_DECLARE has no order defined. Depending on the Makefile is not a good idea. So, usually it is worked around by mandating only root interrupt controller probed using IRQCHIP_ACPI_DECLARE and other interrupt controllers are probed via cascade mechanism. However, this is also not a clean solution because if there are multiple root controllers (ex: RINTC in RISC-V which is per CPU) which need to be probed first, then the cascade will happen for every root controller. So, introduce an architecture specific weak function arch_sort_irqchip_probe() to order the probing of the interrupt controllers which can be implemented by different architectures as per their interrupt controller hierarchy.

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.
