set_handle_irq() is irreversible: once installed, handle_arch_irq
points at gicv5_handle_irq, which dereferences the PPI/SPI/LPI
irqdomains.  If gicv5_irs_enable() fails afterwards, the error path
calls gicv5_free_domains() while handle_arch_irq still references
those domains.

Move set_handle_irq() after gicv5_irs_enable() so the handler is
only installed once all fallible steps have succeeded.  Drop the
no-op set_handle_irq(NULL) in the error path, which never worked
because set_handle_irq() returns -EBUSY once a handler is set.

I don't think that's a massive problem. If you can't enable the IRS,
you can't do much at all. Your system is already completely dead.

That is a reasonable cleanup.

Under which circumstance can this fail? There should be none. So if
this ever returns an error, we should immediately stop with a panic.
No need to clean anything up, just die on the spot.

Fair enough, I'll drop the Fixes tag and reword the commit log.

OK, v2 will panic() on failure and drop the out_handle label along
with the no-op set_handle_irq(NULL).

Thanks for the review.
