Yep - thanks Santosh for clarifying this. Now, we still have the
issues that I pointed out in [1] - without resolving which, we should
not enable crossbar for dra74x/72x.

A. taking example of PMU
	interrupts = <GIC_SPI 131 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>
this wont work. instead the crossbar driver needs some sort of a hint
to know that it should not map these on crossbar register instead
assign GIC mapping directly.

I propose doing the following
#define GIC_CROSSBAR_PASSTHROUGH(irq_no) ((irq_no) | (0x1 << 31))

and dts will define the following:
interrupts = <GIC_SPI GIC_CROSSBAR_PASSTHROUGH(131) IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>

This will also work for the other cases (B.2, B.3)

For B.2: L3_APP_IRQ:
instead of:
interrupts = <GIC_SPI  5 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>
we do:
interrupts = <GIC_SPI GIC_CROSSBAR_PASSTHROUGH(10) IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>

For B.3: NMI
interrupts = <GIC_SPI GIC_CROSSBAR_PASSTHROUGH(133) IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>

xlate is easy ->

        ret = get_prev_map_irq(intspec[1]);
        if (!IS_ERR_VALUE(ret))
                goto found;

But then, crossbar_domain_map and crossbar_domain_unmap need hints as
well to know that there is no corresponding crossbar registers.
Have'nt thought through that yet. Looking to hear about opinions here.
