The way we modelled crossbar is that the irqchip is GIC and routable
mapper is crossbar - which makes sense. now for every "interrupts"
description we try to find a map using the crossbar driver as the irq
framework rightly identifies that peripheral interrupts are routable
and crossbar driver is the guy who knows how to map these to a proper
GIC interrupt number. So far, we are good.

Now the trouble starts when our hardware description in dts assumes
that every peripheral interrupt is a routable interrupt - as this
thread describes - that is NOT the case.

Now the question is how do you differentiate?

interrupts = <GIC_SPI Number Level>

GIC_SPI is correct since we are attempting to describe the SPI
interrupt (offset what ever it is, is a NOP from conceptual discussion).

Level is fine as well.

Number: what does this indicate? crossbar number is what we have
assumed so far. however, then you loose the ability to describe
interrupts on GIC SPI which dont have crossbar interrupts.

Question is how do we differentiate between the two?
