Driver behavior is really outside the scope of the DT. u-boot would use polling even if an interrupt is specified, for example. Rob

In this case, the behavior is determined by the DT compatible string of the iProc I2C device. I thought that it makes sense to now move the 'interrupts' property to be under "Optional" than "Required" which is basically what this change is. > Rob >
