Hi Conor,

Thanks for your patch!

Usually we make a distinction between (a) numbers that can be looked
up easily in a datasheet, and (b) numbers that were made up because
we needed some mapping. Of course both types of numbers are fixed,
and cannot be changed.

For (a), we tend to use the hardcoded numbers in the DTS files, to
avoid reviewers having to go through another layer of indirection
(i.e. does the number for the define match the number in the
datasheet?).
For (b), we use the defines, as there is no other official place to
look up the numbers.

The clock numbers we're made-up, so they fall under (b).

I believe these are just the official CLIC interrupt IDs, so they
fall under (a)?

Hence I'm not sure we want changes like this?

But this change is fine.
