Some examples for comment.
Let us know what would be the better solution?

===========================================================================

option1:

	combpwm0: combpwm0 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-combpwm";
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 39 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
		#address-cells = <2>;
		#size-cells = <2>;

		pwm0: pwm at 20040000 {
			compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm";
			reg = <0x20040000 0x10>;
		};

		pwm1: pwm at 20040010 {
			compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm";
			reg = <0x20040010 0x10>;
		};

		pwm2: pwm at 20040020 {
			compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm";
			reg = <0x20040020 0x10>;
		};

		pwm3: pwm at 20040030 {
			compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm";
			reg = <0x20040030 0x10>;
		};
	};

PRO:
- Existing driver might still work.
CON:
- New compatible needed to service the combined interrupts.
- Driver change needed.

===========================================================================
option 2:

	combpwm0: pwm at 10280000 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm";
		reg = <0x10280000 0x40>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 38 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <0>;

		pwm4: pwm-4 at 0 {
			reg = <0x0>;
		};

		pwm5: pwm-5 at 10 {
			reg = <0x10>;
		};

		pwm6: pwm-6 at 20 {
			reg = <0x20>;
		};

		pwm7: pwm-7 at 30 {
			reg = <0x30>;
		};
	};

CON:
- Driver change needed.
- Not compatible with current drivers.

===========================================================================

Current situation:

	pwm0: pwm at 20040000 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm", "rockchip,rk3288-pwm";
		reg = <0x20040000 0x10>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 39 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
	};

	pwm1: pwm at 20040010 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm", "rockchip,rk3288-pwm";
		reg = <0x20040010 0x10>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 39 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
	};

	pwm2: pwm at 20040020 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm", "rockchip,rk3288-pwm";
		reg = <0x20040020 0x10>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 39 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
	};

	pwm3: pwm at 20040030 {
		compatible = "rockchip,rv1108-pwm", "rockchip,rk3288-pwm";
		reg = <0x20040030 0x10>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 39 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
	};

CON:
- The property "interrupts 39" can only be claimed ones by one probe function at the time.
- Has a fall-back string for rk3288, but unknown identical behavior for interrupts ???
