Jon,
I was checking to see if the DT bindings have been updated to reflect
the interrupt-less operation however I can't seem to find it in the
Kernel tree. The last activity I can find is this one...

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/490819/

I guess it may have slipped through the cracks so I'm going to update
the bindings document and re-submit.

Regards,
Andreas
