IMO this is ugly, but I won't fight too hard on it if you guys really
want to do it that way. Reading the documentation it sounds as if
allowing for both is intended to be used in cases where the same
device tree might be used on old software (that didn't understand
interrupts-extended) and on new software (that does). The
interrupts-extended property by far predates any sc7180 support,
though, so I can't imagine anyone really needing to use that these
days. Is it really that bad to add the /delete-property/ to end up
with a cleaner final device tree?
