Yes, absolutely. I keep thinking of it in the singular form, but it
absolutely needs to be plural.

That's the idea. The nice part about this is that you can grab each
range with of_parse_phandle_with_args() + two read_u32_index. The bad
part is that you have to know what part of the intspec needs to be
hacked to provide the range, but you already have this built-in in any
hierarchical interrupt controller driver.

Honestly, I don't think it is worth it. There are a number of other
irqchips in the same boat, and nobody will ever update them (the fsl
stuff, for example). I'd rather you focus on the new stuff to make it
right.

Thanks,
