Other than the vendor prefix, this looks mostly okay - from the
perspective of someone unaware of this type of this device.
Just some minor comments from me.

The registers for what exactly?

0x80000 is rather a large space for a single register!

s/_clk//, since that part is obvious.

Please keep things consistently in hex here please.

If this is 3 different interrupts, format as "<0>, <96>, <4>".
Otherwise, consider importing whatever header provides definitions for
these things.
