Hi Stephen,

Our emails crossed paths. I think we could just make the property
optional so that we can remove the property completely for drivers
that support interrupts. Comments?

That is a bigger change to the bindings and I don't want to hold the
tsens interrupt support hostage to agreement on this.

Amit
