Quote from the CHRP ISA interrupt controller device binding document:
“reserved-interrupts”
Standard property name to define reserved interrupts.
prop-encoded-array: An integer array, encoded with encode-int.
The value of this property shall be a list of ISA interrupts which cannot
be assigned due to cascading, wiring, or other reasons. Only the irq# part
of the property is pertinent to this use.

Yeah, I got them wrong almost everywhere.
