This will be fixed, sorry for the inconvenience.

This (per CPU) interrupt controller is not memory mapped at all, it is
controlled and configured through system registers.

I do not have found existing .yaml bindings for such devices, only the
file snps,archs-intc.txt has something similar.

I do not know what is the best way to represent such devices in the
device-tree.  Any suggestions are welcome.

This property is not even used in our device-tree, this will be removed
from the documentation and from the driver as well.

I am starting over from the example-schema.

As said above, this is not a memory mapped device, but is accessed
through system registers.
