The reason I did this is because of the entry macro get_irqnr_and_base 
macro decoding.  If I used irq_domain_generate_simple() rather than 
irq_domain_add_simple() then I guess the ordering of the VIC's in the DT 
wont matter.  I'll give this a test when I have access to hardware again 
and respin.

Many thanks for the review!
