See my reply to your comments for patch 1. I think it should explain how 
these values are used.

One thing worth mentioning is that registers for GPIO interrupts and wakeup 
interrupts can be located at different areas of pin controller address 
space, so these offsets have to be specified for both (using geint-* and 
weint-* properties).
