Devices in the BCM2835 AUX block share a common interrupt line, with a
register indicating which devices have active IRQs. Expose this as a
nested interrupt controller to avoid IRQ sharing problems (easily
observed if UART1 and SPI1/2 are enabled simultaneously).

So how are the interrupt enabled/disabled if this interrupt controller
just returns their pending state?
