What's the best way, in your opinion, to overhaul this property? As we don't
really care backward compatibility of DTBs on those systems we can
just redesign it.
You may not care about backward compatibility, but I do. We don't
break existing systems, full stop.
Ah it won't break any existing system. Sorry for not giving enough insight
into the platform in previous reply. As for Loongson64 all DTBs are built
into kernel binary. So as long as binding are changed together with all DTS
in tree we won't break any system.
As for the offending property, it has no place here either. DT is not
the place where you put "performance knobs".
Hmm, I can see various bindings with vendor prefix exposing device
configurations. If we seen this interrupt routing as a device configuration
I don't think it's against devicetree design philosophy.

Thanks
