No preference, choose whatever results in simpler or more readable code.

Option 1 assumes that exynos-pmu on GS101 will drop the "syscon"
compatible, although it still might expose syscon through drivers. Just
the standard binding syscon does not feel fit here.

I don't have the hardware/user manual, so I don't know what PMU_INTR_GEN
really is. GS downstream code has something like PMUCAL, which looks
like separate device.
