Indeed Mark,

I already rewritten the driver taking Marc's comment into account.
There will be 2 properties added to the DT:
Â-Âmeson,upstream-interrupts : an array with the 8 gic interrupt used
as output of the controller
- Âmeson,num-input-mux : the number of inputs (pads) available to the
muxes

I'm looking for solution to the "create mapping" issue we have in
pinctrl (patch 4) before posting a v3.

If you think these properties should be different, feel free to tell me
now.

Thx
Jerome
