It's just missing a reg properties to be a valid node, right?

I'm using an upstream driver on v4.9-rc1

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/irqchip/irq-tango.c

Given that the system locks up, is it possible there is a bug
in the driver?

Which call-back handles enabling/disabling interrupts?

Regards.
