Thanks for your patch!

While diving deeper into the RZ/N1 documentation, I noticed the switch
has 4 interrupts, which are currently not described in the bindings.
Presumably the driver has no need to use them, but as DT describes
hardware, I think it would be good to submit follow-up patches for
bindings and DTS to add the interrupts.

Thanks!
