I though IMMR stands for "internel memory mapped regisgters". The spec
does not say anything about a name. In fact there are just devices
popping up. Some of them are part of a group but lapic or the primary
ioapic are just there.
Let me look, maybe I find something more appropriate. Would -soc be
better?

I don't see it anywhere in the spec describing like that but that is the
way it behaves. In the non-apic mode it goes through the cascaded i8259.
Once we are in apic mode, the i8259 is switched off and the rtc's
interrupt apears on ioapic. If the entry for pin 8 on ioapic is not
configured, then the interrupt does not appear.
The spec says that the rtc is part of the legacy cluster which contains
all the "legacy" devices like i8259 or rtc. The uart for instance is not
part of it. This legacy cluster is behind PCI, behind the isa bridge.
And I belive this device is also in-core.

No, it is not cascaded. It is the second ioapic (interrupt controller).
This ioapic communicates via the apic bus with the lapic in order to
generate an interrupt. The primary ioapic is not involved.

To some degree yes. There are three modes in which the system can
operate. The legacy mode where all devices end up sharing one interrupt
line, the multi mode which uses the interrupt pin (INTA..D) are used and
the inetrrupt is also routed to the legacy pic. In APIC mode (which is
used) each device is routed directly to the ioapic.
However, all of these devices are in-core, there is no external PCI bus
where you can plug in cards. This internal PCI bus looks more or less
like an emulated PCI bus.

The INTA..D information is not part of the address and I hoped to get
away with this. There are no slotted pci devies.
So if I come up with nodes for the devices then I would need the reg
property and a compatible property.

I try to look that part up in the pci binding.
