The binding looks fine now. I have a few detail comments but am happy
with the series otherwise.

We try to avoid wildcards in the "compatible" properties. Better use
the name of the first SoC that had this controller, and let the other
ones mark themselves as compatible with that one.

I guess "samsung,s3c2410-irq" would be the right identifier here.

I expected the second and third cell to be in the opposite order, so
the meaning of the second cell is always the same.

Wouldn't it be easier to always use the same setup for the domains here?
