This function called by SP7021 display driver to decide DISPLAY_IRQ
routing to which parent irq (EXT_INT0 or EXT_INT1).

In previous patches, which defined in DT, parsed & processed @ sp_intc_xlate_of()
From your comment, this is a SW decision. So I removed it from DT & intc driver, only
export this function to access the related intc reg.
