Sure, because orion5x is slow-going. There aren't that many users. Since we prefer tested patches, we need to grab the opportunity when it comes a long. It could be another year or more before we see more patches for orion5x. Fully converting orion5x to DT doesn't have a schedule, it's as we encounter devs willing to post patches for their boards. The opportunity here is that you were just booting a legacy board file on an orion5x SoC. Therefore, you're in the best position to write/test the irq change. thx, Jason.
