[PATCH v3 04/11] ARM: bcm2835: dt: add bindings for shared interrupt properties

From: mark.rutland@arm.com (Mark Rutland)

Hi,

As a general note, please put DT bindings patches before any patches
implementing them, as per
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt.

That makes it possible to review a series in-order.

Generally we don't like masks in DT (though I see this is in keeping with
another property above). I won't push strongly here.

I take it that this is a fixed HW property rather than a software configuration
option?

+			     above is the shared interrupt
What is the usual order of the interrupts? How are they expected to be parsed
if this is in the middle of the list, for example?

I think this needs a more thorough description.

Thanks,
Mark.
