OK, that is wrong.  The validity mask is used for the non-DT platforms, 
for the DT one I'll add a property stating the valid mask:

	arm,valid-irq-mask = <0x001fffff>;

to the node in the trees.

OK, I didn't know that.  So fpga-irq is an appropriate name (is it 
always an FPGA?) and arm,versatile-fpga-irq OK for a compatible string?
