Like I said (perhaps elsewhere in this thread), there
might be something in the interrupt mapping spec yes.

But I don't see what...  read on...

And a missing #address-cells property means 0 for the
purpose of interrupt mapping.  Here, have some quotes
from the spec:


> For nodes that represent devices, the number of cells to represent a 
> unit interrupt specifier  is the  sum of the "#address-cells"  and 
> "#interrupt-cells"  properties; for nodes that do  not represent 
> devices, there is no relevant "#address-cells"  value, so that the 
> number of cells  is solely determined by the "#interrupt-cells" value. 
>  The latter case exists due to the nature of representing interrupt 
> mapping outside the context of the normal device tree.


> Note that the "open-pic" node does not have a "#address-cells" 
> property, so that  the number of cells for the parent unit interrupt 
> specifiers is 2 (which is the value of its "#interrupt-cells" 
> property).
