Tegra could perhaps be written another way. The mapping is standard,
but it's disabling an idle state when PCI interrupts are used. It just
needs some way to know if legacy interrupts are being used.

iproc looks pretty special with its bcma bus.

Adding something to DT doesn't really help because we'd still have to
support the old way.
