[RFC v7 2/6] dt-bindings: interrupt-controller: document PolarFire SoC's gpio interrupt mux

On PolarFire SoC there are more GPIO interrupts than there are interrupt
lines available on the PLIC, and a runtime configurable mux is used to
decide which interrupts are assigned direct connections to the PLIC &
which are relegated to sharing a line.
This mux is, in our reference configuration, written by platform
firmware during boot based on the FPGA's configuration.

+description: |
+  There are 3 GPIO controllers on this SoC, of which:
+  - GPIO controller 0 has 14 GPIOs
+  - GPIO controller 1 has 24 GPIOs
+  - GPIO controller 2 has 32 GPIOs
+
+  All GPIOs are capable of generating interrupts, for a total of 70.
+  There are only 41 IRQs available however, so a configurable mux is used to
+  ensure all GPIOs can be used for interrupt generation.
+  38 of the 41 interrupts are in what the documentation calls "direct mode",
+  as they provide an exclusive connection from a GPIO to the PLIC.
+  The 3 remaining interrupts are used to mux the interrupts which do not have
+  a exclusive connection, one for each GPIO controller.

+      The first 38 entries must be the "direct" interrupts, for exclusive

+      respectively.
