It's a hardware property of the board that uses the device. There might
be boards that connect just one of them at random, which is the reason
for this DT property. There also might be exotic users who will want
to use both pins to route different interrupt sources to (not yet
supported, but no problem with such a bitmask).

ok. If I don't do a version 6 really soon, I'll reply with this patch
corrected here.

It's not truly necessary. It's just a nice fit. There is one 8 bit
(device memory) register that basically could (in the future) be
exposed through this DT property.

For now it's just 0xff or nothing. We only don't want to create an
interface that could restrict us from implementing more in the future
without breaking anything.
