interrupt-controller.yaml is applied to any node named 
'interrupt-controller'. More generally, if 'compatible' is not present, 
then we look at $nodename for the default 'select'. In your case, you 
didn't name the node appropriately.
 
We can't check this in interrupt-controller.yaml because #address-cells 
is not always 0. GICv3 is one notable exception.

I've commented on this thread now in regards to #address-cells.
