Is this always one-to-one mapping or can the same interrupt be routed to
multiple targets like to the SoC and some coprocessor?

> +Configuration of these MUXCNTL_N registers is done by a system controller

> +Driver should request the system controller to get the range of GIC IRQs

> +
> +Communication between the host processor running an OS and the system
> +controller happens through a protocol called TI System Control Interface
> +(TISCI protocol). For more details refer:
> +Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/keystone/ti,sci.txt

Care to describe a bit why the interrupts need to be routed by a system
controller?

Regards,

Tony
