I have posted a patch based on this approach (after having found out
that it is possible
with the current framework using platform_get_irq_byname).
Rob Herring has "Acked" the documentation patch:
[PATCH 1/3] dt/bindings: bcm2835: add interrupt-names property
Is this approach acceptable for you as well, so that we can try to get
it merged?
Thanks, Martin
