I'd like to avoid adding more driver like stuff to mach-omap2
and parsing compatible flags and dealing with interupts sounds
very driver like.. But maybe just the handling can be moved
out?

Would a simple driver be doable that parses the compatible
flags, takes care of the IRQ chaining, and gets some SoC specific
function pointers as auxdata?

That would allow further work later on to remove the auxdata
dependencies possibly.
