I don't follow. What do you mean byt "configured by the driver". If the 
block supports interrupts, then it should be marked as an 
interrupt-controller. It never should have been optional. The OS can 
ignore the interrupt properties if it chooses.

I don't follow. What do you mean byt "configured by the driver". If the 
block supports interrupts, then it should be marked as an 
interrupt-controller. It never should have been optional. The OS can 
ignore the interrupt properties if it chooses.
