As per the spec, bit 1 (INT_CLEAR_MODE) of reg addr 0xe
(page 0) controls the method of clearing interrupt
status of 88pm800 family of devices;

0: clear on read
1: clear on write

This patch allows to configure this field, through DT.

Also, as suggested by "Lee Jones" renaming DT property and variable
field to appropriate name.

It does not look like a property of the board. Instead it looks like a
runtime configuration so it should not be part of DT bindings.


Why do you say that?

It is very well feature of 88PM860 device, where you can control irq
clear operation (either read/write).


Thanks,

I understand that previously this was configured by platform data and
now you want to move everything to DT. But this does not belong to
DT...


Thats not completely true.
I think DT is the right place for this configuration.

Thanks,
Vaibhav
