What about adding this routine in vic.c file, which can then be used
by all platforms, instead of replicating this code.

We can't move vic_of_match to the vic.c, since there are differences
between the boards using it. And only moving spear6xx_dt_init_irq()
(renamed of course) doesn't seem worth it.

I knew this. Actually my thought was, we have two compatible strings for
vic: pl190 and pl192.

So, create two vic_of_match* arrays and two vic*_dt_init_irq() routines.
That will solve the issue i believe.

I still don't think its worth it. But please feel free to send an add-on 
patch, to "clean this up".

What's wrong with one vic_dt_init_irq() function and an array with two entries?
