The boilerplate code is almost 100% :-)

We talk about 3 registers and 2 bit defines. struct regmap_field
should be able to help here.

Optional interrupt property? If both are defined hook old ISR, if its
only one hook pm8941 ISR?

I would not say vagueness, we just can say that pm8941 did not have
second interrupt?
