Well, I can certainly change the comment. I do not want it to be
"mandatory" if just interrupts are used.
The reason I prefer using "interrupt-names" is that this allows
unforeseen use of future additional interrupts w/o caring about order
in the interrupts DT node. If you are absolutely positive that there
will never be other interrupts used in the future for the SCMI node
then I will drop it.

Will do.

Will do.
