Ah it won't break any existing system. Sorry for not giving enough insight
into the platform in previous reply. As for Loongson64 all DTBs are built
into kernel binary. So as long as binding are changed together with all DTS
in tree we won't break any system.

Hmm, I can see various bindings with vendor prefix exposing device
configurations. If we seen this interrupt routing as a device configuration
I don't think it's against devicetree design philosophy.
