This is a bit odd. If you always set bit 16, why isn't that reflected in
the base address coming from the DT?

The 20 least significant bits of addr_low provide direct information
regarding the interrupt destination, so I thought it would be clearer
to have this explicitly in the driver so that we know what those bits
mean.

So what is this information? TARGET_CLUSTER0 is not very expressive, and
doesn't show what the alternatives are. Could you please elaborate a bit
on that front?

Thanks,
