I think this propoerty should be in a separate section, since it's going
under a sub-node (not the main node). Right?

Same with this property.

e.g., you might start a new section here describing how this controller
acts as an intermediate IRQ controller, and that the
interrupt-controller-related properties should be placed under a subnode.
(Did you also need an interrupt-parent property? I'm a little fuzzy on
the details myself, actually...)

I believe the repeat of #interrupt-cells and interrupt-controller in the
pcie@ node is a mistake. They should only be in the 'interrupt-controller'
subnode. And in case this is what you're asking about... the subnode was
present in v1 but was removed at your request:

But then in v3, Arnd concluded it actually *should* be used:

Rob and others agreed with the subnode. So, I hope you don't disagree in
principle, and are only confused by the duplicate properties?
