I'm concerned that this sounds very general while the binding assumes
the GICv2 interrupt-specifier format. Either the driver needs to become
more general, or this needs to be tightened up.

It's also odd to say "irq domain parent", as that's purely a Linux
construct and has nothing to do with the HW.

Thanks,
Mark.
