The original idea was to support backward compatibility, as older DTs
didn't contain queue-based interrupt lines described.

But now, when you asked, I started to think it is not needed,
the requirement for backward compatibility is managed inside the driver
and yaml shall describe the hardware not used configuration.

Is it my understanding right? Should I provide v4 with minimum = 11?
