From: Stuart Yoder <stuart.yoder at freescale.com>

define the binding for compatible = "fsl,mpic", including
the definition of 4-cell interrupt specifiers.  The
3rd and 4th cells are needed to define additional
types of interrupt source outside the "normal"
external and internal interrupts in FSL SoCs.  Define
error interrupt, IPIs, and PIC timer sources.

-* OpenPIC and its interrupt numbers on Freescale's e500/e600 cores
-
-The OpenPIC specification does not specify which interrupt source has to
-become which interrupt number. This is up to the software implementation
-of the interrupt controller. The only requirement is that every
-interrupt source has to have an unique interrupt number / vector number.
-To accomplish this the current implementation assigns the number zero to
-the first source, the number one to the second source and so on until
-all interrupt sources have their unique number.
-Usually the assigned vector number equals the interrupt number mentioned
-in the documentation for a given core / CPU. This is however not true
-for the e500 cores (MPC85XX CPUs) where the documentation distinguishes
-between internal and external interrupt sources and starts counting at
-zero for both of them.
-
-So what to write for external interrupt source X or internal interrupt
-source Y into the device tree? Here is an example:
-
-The memory map for the interrupt controller in the MPC8544[0] shows,
-that the first interrupt source starts at 0x5_0000 (PIC Register Address
-Map-Interrupt Source Configuration Registers). This source becomes the
-number zero therefore:
- External interrupt 0 = interrupt number 0
- External interrupt 1 = interrupt number 1
- External interrupt 2 = interrupt number 2
- ...
-Every interrupt number allocates 0x20 bytes register space. So to get
-its number it is sufficient to shift the lower 16bits to right by five.
-So for the external interrupt 10 we have:
-  0x0140 >> 5 = 10
-
-After the external sources, the internal sources follow. The in core I2C
-controller on the MPC8544 for instance has the internal source number
-27. Oo obtain its interrupt number we take the lower 16bits of its memory
-address (0x5_0560) and shift it right:
- 0x0560 >> 5 = 43
-
-Therefore the I2C device node for the MPC8544 CPU has to have the
-interrupt number 43 specified in the device tree.

+=====================================================================
+
+The Freescale MPIC interrupt controller is found on all PowerQUICC
+and QorIQ processors and is compatible with the Open PIC.  The
+notable difference from Open PIC binding is the addition of 2
+additional cells in the interrupt specifier defining interrupt type
+information.
+
+PROPERTIES
+
+  - compatible
+      Usage: required
+      Value type: <string>
+      Definition: Shall include "fsl,mpic".  Freescale MPIC
+          controllers compatible with this binding have Block
+          Revision Registers BRR1 and BRR2 at offset 0x0 and
+          0x10 in the MPIC.
+
+  - reg
+      Usage: required
+      Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+      Definition: A standard property.  Specifies the physical
+          offset and length of the device's registers within the
+          CCSR address space.
+
+  - interrupt-controller
+      Usage: required
+      Value type: <empty>
+      Definition: Specifies that this node is an interrupt
+          controller
+
+  - #interrupt-cells
+      Usage: required
+      Value type: <u32>
+      Definition: Shall be 2 or 4.  A value of 2 means that interrupt
+          specifiers do not contain the interrupt-type or type-specific
+          information cells.
+
+  - #address-cells
+      Usage: required
+      Value type: <u32>
+      Definition: Shall be 0.
+
+  - no-reset
+      Usage: optional
+      Value type: <empty>
+      Definition: The presence of this property specifies that the
+          MPIC must not be reset by the client program, and that
+          the boot program has initialized all interrupt source
+          configuration registers to a sane state-- masked or
+          directed at other cores.  This ensures that the client
+          program will not receive interrupts for sources not belonging
+          to the client.
+       
+INTERRUPT SPECIFIER DEFINITION
+
+  Interrupt specifiers consists of 4 cells encoded as
+  follows:
+
+   <1st-cell>   interrupt-number
+
+                Identifies the interrupt source.  The meaning
+                depends on the type of interrupt.
+
+                Note: If the interrupt-type cell is undefined
+                (i.e. #interrupt-cells = 2), this cell
+                should be interpreted the same as for
+                interrupt-type 0-- i.e. an external or
+                normal SoC device interrupt.
+
+   <2nd-cell>   level-sense information, encoded as follows:
+                    0 = low-to-high edge triggered
+                    1 = active low level-sensitive
+                    2 = active high level-sensitive
+                    3 = high-to-low edge triggered
+
+   <3rd-cell>   interrupt-type
+
+                The following types are supported:
+
+                  0 = external or normal SoC device interrupt
+
+                      The interrupt-number cell contains
+                      the SoC device interrupt number.  The
+                      type-specific cell is undefined.  The
+                      interrupt-number is derived from the
+                      MPIC a block of registers referred to as
+                      the "Interrupt Source Configuration Registers".
+                      Each source has 32-bytes of registers
+                      (vector/priority and destination) in this
+                      region.   So interrupt 0 is at offset 0x0,
+                      interrupt 1 is at offset 0x20, and so on.
+
+                  1 = error interrupt
+
+                      The interrupt-number cell contains
+                      the SoC device interrupt number for
+                      the error interrupt.  The type-specific
+                      cell identifies the specific error
+                      interrupt number.
+
+                  2 = MPIC inter-processor interrupt (IPI)
+
+                      The interrupt-number cell identifies
+                      the MPIC IPI number.  The type-specific
+                      cell is undefined.
+
+                  3 = MPIC timer interrupt
+
+                      The interrupt-number cell identifies
+                      the MPIC timer number.  The type-specific
+                      cell is undefined.
+
+   <4th-cell>   type-specific information
+
+                The type-specific cell is encoded as follows:
+
+                 - For interrupt-type 1 (error interrupt),
+                   the type-specific cell contains the
+                   bit number of the error interrupt in the
+                   Error Interrupt Summary Register.
