Why <1d 2 1e 2 22 2> ? I can't seem to parse these numbers
They alternate between IRQ numbers and level/sense information, and the
IRQ numbers are the internal IRQ number plus 16.

Thanks, The "internal IRQ number plus 16" part is the info I was
lacking. However by 'internal IRQ' do you mean DMA? I just asked the
hardware engineer and that's what he thought you may have meant.
No, I mean interrupts that come from on-chip devices, rather than 
external interrupt pins.
So in '1d'  the first cell is the irq and the second cell is the sense
level, how is the '1' calculated from 'internal IRQ number plus 16' .
Thanks for you patience, I'm just not getting that part yet.
What do you mean, the '1'?

 From table 10-3 of the 8548 manual, the eTSEC1 transmit interrupt is 
internal interrupt 13, or 0xd.  Adding 16 gives 0x1d.

It's (apparently) level-triggered active-high, so the sense is 2, 
according to the table in booting-without-of.txt.

If, like the CDS board, you have level-triggered active-low phy
interrupts, then <0 1>, <1 1>, <2 1>, and <3 1>.  If not, then choose an
appropriate value for the second cell based on booting-without-of.txt.

Kool, think I got this part. Do the 0-3 irq's in the mdio node
influence in any way the ethernet nodes irq's - the <1d 2 1e 2 22 2>
in this example ?
No.
