Nicolas Ferre e261501d05 ARM: at91/aic: add irq domain and device tree support
Add an irqdomain for the AIC interrupt controller.
The device tree support is mapping the registers and
is using the irq_domain_add_legacy() to manage hwirq
translation.
The documentation is describing the meaning of the
two cells required for using this "interrupt-controller"
in a device tree node.

* Advanced Interrupt Controller (AIC)
Required properties:
- compatible: Should be "atmel,<chip>-aic"
- interrupt-controller: Identifies the node as an interrupt controller.
- interrupt-parent: For single AIC system, it is an empty property.
- #interrupt-cells: The number of cells to define the interrupts. It sould be 2.
The first cell is the IRQ number (aka "Peripheral IDentifier" on datasheet).
The second cell is used to specify flags:
bits[3:0] trigger type and level flags:
1 = low-to-high edge triggered.
2 = high-to-low edge triggered.
4 = active high level-sensitive.
8 = active low level-sensitive.
Valid combinations are 1, 2, 3, 4, 8.
Default flag for internal sources should be set to 4 (active high).
- reg: Should contain AIC registers location and length
Examples:
/*
* AIC
*/
aic: interrupt-controller@fffff000 {
compatible = "atmel,at91rm9200-aic";
interrupt-controller;
interrupt-parent;
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
reg = <0xfffff000 0x200>;
};
/*
* An interrupt generating device that is wired to an AIC.
*/
dma: dma-controller@ffffec00 {
compatible = "atmel,at91sam9g45-dma";
reg = <0xffffec00 0x200>;
interrupts = <21 4>;
};
