Hello Krzysztof,

Thanks for your review. Regarding this change, I was thinking since 
S32N79 irqsteer does not implement the 'CHANCTRL' register, it should 
not fallback to 'fsl,imx-irqsteer'. If the driver were to match on the 
fallback compatible, it would attempt to write to the non-existent 
CHANCTRL register.

Am I wrong?

Best regards,
Ciprian
