  * struct regmap_irq_chip - Description of a generic regmap irq_chip.
  *
  * @name:        Descriptive name for IRQ controller.
  *
+ * @main_status: Base main status register address. For chips which have
+ *		 interrupts arranged in separate sub-irq blocks with own IRQ
+ *		 registers and which have a main IRQ registers indicating
+ *		 sub-irq blocks with unhandled interrupts. For such chips fill
+ *		 sub-irq register information in status_base, mask_base and
+ *		 ack_base.
+ * @num_main_status_bits: Should be given to chips where number of meaningfull
+ *			  main status bits differs from num_regs.
+ * @sub_reg_offsets: arrays of mappings from main register bits to sub irq
+ *		     registers. First item in array describes the registers
+ *		     for first main status bit. Second array for second bit etc.
+ *		     Offset is given as sub register status offset to
+ *		     status_base. Should contain num_regs arrays.
+ *		     Can be provided for chips with more complex mapping than
+ *		     1.st bit to 1.st sub-reg, 2.nd bit to 2.nd sub-reg, ...
+ * @num_main_regs: Number of 'main status' irq registers for chips which have
+ *		   main_status set.
+ *
  * @status_base: Base status register address.
  * @mask_base:   Base mask register address.
  * @mask_writeonly: Base mask register is write only.
