Overall looks very good.

I think you should clarify that the "reg" property can be multiple
4-byte ranges, because that is fairly unusual.

I'm wondering about this one.  The other platforms usually put the secondary
interrupt controllers into the same match table, while you call orion_gpio_of_init
from orion_add_irq_domain. Can you explain why you do this? Does it have
any disadvantages?
