The code is awful, yes.

I wonder if we could rather find all DA0063 and DA9210 PMICs in the DT,
check if their IRQ lines are tied together and then generate the table
above dynamically for whatever PMICs are present in the system. Then all
that special-casing would go away as we'd extract the information from DT.
