What does it mean to have single-cell interrupt specifiers like this,
when the interrupt-parent is a GIC, which has #interrupt-cells set to 3?
Either you use actual interrupt specifiers, or you use another identifier.

Thanks,

The following approaches have been used already:

- standard interrupts property (3-cell): was rejected because the chip doesn't
  actually generate the interrupts but just provides a programmable IRQ routing

- property "parent-interrupts" (1-cell): Rob suggested to use "interrupts" instead

I'd appreciate if you could come to an agreement with Rob, whatever the outcome
is is fine with me.

Rgds, Heiner

So what? That is describing any chained interrupt controller. The
interrupts binding describes interrupt connections, not just interrupt
source endpoints.

If Marc said not to use standard interrupt binding I can't find it.

+Amlogic meson GPIO interrupt controller
+
+Meson SoCs contains an interrupt controller which is able watch the SoC pads
+and generate an interrupt on edges or level. The controller is essentially a
+256 pads to 8 GIC interrupt multiplexer, with a filter block to select edge
+or level and polarity. The actual number of interrupt exposed depends on the
+SoC.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be "amlogic,meson-gpio-intc".
+- reg : Specifies base physical address and size of the registers.
+- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller.
+- #interrupt-cells : should be 2.
+- interrupts : list of GIC interrupts which can be used with the
+	       GPIO IRQ multiplexer
+
+Example:
+
+gpio_intc: interrupt-controller@9880 {
+	compatible = "amlogic,meson-gpio-intc";
+	reg = <0x0 0x09880 0x0 0x10>;
+	interrupt-controller;
+	#interrupt-cells = <2>;
+	interrupts = <64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71>;
