I might be thinking a bit too generic here actually.

I was thinking we need to support something that has
gpio-controller; so a consumer can get a GPIO line reference
but would not also be an interrupt-controller; so it can't
serve interrupts through the device tree bindings but
may still do so from the driver using gpiolibs .to_irq().

So the specifier would need to come in someplace else.

But I think that is maybe not at all realistic.

If there is an interrupt trigger, that can be used with
a gpio-controller that is also an interrupt-controller,
that should be fine, and then we can use the standard
DT bindings to specify the interrupt type.
