It's a little bit overkill ... It's not so much an interrupt controller
than a single "summary" register that reflects the state of the
interrupts of all the i2c controllers ;-) It can't do anything with
them, no individual masking or acking or similar.

In fact to be honest I wouldn't even have bothered making it an
irq_domain in the first place though it *is* nice I admit to see the
interrupt counts per bus in /proc/interrupts as a result.

Cheers,
Ben.
