In my current implementation, I need two things to judge whether
irq is really necessary.

If the timer contains "arm,sp804-clockevent = <evtoffs>" property,
I'll check whether the timer irq is specified at the same time.

TIMINT1 & TIMINTC are not routed. TIMINT2 is used for clock event.

     interrupts = <any number> <1>;

        if (!retevt) {
                if (evtoffs) {
                        /* TIMER2 is clock event */
                        i = 1;
                        evtoffs = TIMER_2_BASE;
                } else {
                        /* TIMER1 is clock event */
                        i = 0;
                        evtoffs = TIMER_1_BASE;
                }
                irq = irq_of_parse_and_map(np, i);
                ...
        }

If the timer contains "arm,sp804-clocksource = <srcoffs>" property,
I won't check the timer irq. You even needn't define it.

TIMINT1 & TIMINTC are not routed. TIMER2 is used for clock source.
      interrupts = <any number> <any number>;
or
      don't define interrupts

        if (!retsrc) {
                if (srcoffs) {
                        /* TIMER2 is clock source */
                        i = 1;
                        srcoffs = TIMER_2_BASE;
                } else {
                        /* TIMER1 is clock source */
                        i = 0;
                        srcoffs = TIMER_1_BASE;
                }
                ...
        }
