Okay, I'll update these.

Interrupt handling and error logging is not supported from Tegra186
onward. So the patches are for adding supported interrupts and logging
them from Tegra186 onward. But you are right, subject/commit message is
misleading. I'll update it in next version.

clearing_interrupts() won't be needed. As pointed by Dmitry, we should
be logging early boot MC interrupts as well instead of clearing them.
Also, I'll keep handling irq inside tegra_mc_ops instead of adding new
structure.
