This is a new per-cpu root interrupt controller on the Raspberry Pi 2,
which will chain to the bcm2835 interrupt controller for peripheral
interrupts.

+BCM2836 per-CPU interrupt controller
+
+The BCM2836 has a per-cpu interrupt controller for the timer, PMU
+events, and SMP IPIs. One of the CPUs may receive interrupts for the
+peripheral (GPU) events, which chain to the BCM2835-style interrupt
+controller.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: Should be "brcm,bcm2836-l1-intc"
+- reg: Specifies base physical address and size of the
+ registers
+- interrupt-controller: Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
+- #interrupt-cells: Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
+ interrupt source. The value shall be 1
+
+Please refer to interrupts.txt in this directory for details of the common
+Interrupt Controllers bindings used by client devices.
+
+The interrupt sources are as follows:
+
+0: CNTPSIRQ
+1: CNTPNSIRQ
+2: CNTHPIRQ
+3: CNTVIRQ
+8: GPU_FAST
+9: PMU_FAST
+
+Example:
+
+local_intc: local_intc {
+ compatible = "brcm,bcm2836-l1-intc";
+ reg = <0x40000000 0x100>;
+ interrupt-controller;
+ #interrupt-cells = <1>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&local_intc>;
+};
