Change the documentation to reflect the new bindings used for Marvell
ICU. This involves describing each interrupt group as a subnode of the
ICU node. Each of them having their own compatible.  
Need to explain why you need to do this and why breaking backwards 
compatibility is okay.
It does not break backward compatibility. The driver changes keep
support for the previous DT binding where there was a single node with
no subnodes.

The DT binding documentation still documents the legacy binding,
because it is still supported, and still works.

Best regards,

Thomas
