Since commit dc749a09ea ("gpiolib: allow gpio irqchip to map irqs
dynamically"), the irqs for gpio are not statically allocated during in
gpiochip_irqchip_add.
This driver was based on this assumption for initializing the mask
associated to each interrupt this led to a NULL pointer crash in the
kernel:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

This patch moves the initialization of the mask field in the irq_startup
function. However some callbacks such as irq_set_type and irq_set_wake
could be called before irq_startup. For those functions the mask is
computed at each call which is not a issue as these functions are not
located in a hot path but are used sporadically for configuration.

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst
Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
