Yes we are already querying sysfw for all the irq ranges that can be
discoverable. The topic of discussion here is about the parent interrupt
controller id. I am not sure how you are expecting an id be discoverable
from system firmware especially with a name.

If preferred this can be moved to of_match_data attached to each
compatible property. Then for each SoC a new compatible needs to be created.
