The RZ/G2L Interrupt Controller is a front-end for the GIC found on
Renesas RZ/G2L SoC's with below pins:
- IRQ sense select for 8 external interrupts, mapped to 8 GIC SPI interrupts
- GPIO pins used as external interrupt input pins out of GPIOINT0-122 a
maximum of only 32 can be mapped to 32 GIC SPI interrupts,
- NMI edge select.

The proposed RFC patches, add the IRQ domains in GPIO (pinctrl driver) and the
IRQC driver. The IRQC domain handles the actual SPI interrupt and upon reception
of the interrupt it propagates to the GPIO IRQ domain to handle virq.
Out of GPIOINT0-122 only 32 can be mapped to GIC SPI, this mapping is handled by
the IRQC driver.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
