I can only reduce the table but I need to keep the interrupt-map property.

'interrupt-map' is a required property. If the board doesn't use any interrupt
GPIO, its dts has no reason to set the interrupt-map.

In that case, if I fully remove 'interrupt-map' in the dtsi, dtbs_check
will not be happy. Indeed, a required property is missing.

Also, having the full table containing the 8 items with the correct GIC
interrupt number and the correct order could help a user to route the
GPIO line to one of those 8 items.

The '0' field use as interrupt source matches the registers reset value
of the irq-mux controller.

With that in mind, do you still think that I should reduce this table?
