True, but the binding says that the compatible *must* be the three 
stated... so we must comply to that, regardless if it's a need for it or 
not in U-boot.

I sent a patch in Linux to remove interrupts from mandatory. Let's have 
the node without it for now.

Your series will have to wait a little bit anyway for the next merge
