Better indeed.

Commit 5f79c651e81e ("arm: mvebu: use global interrupts for GPIOs on
Armada XP") changes it from "marvell,armadaxp-gpio". The commit message
says for 3.8 basically leaving it open for a "fix" later.

Adding Thomas Petazzoni as the author.

Thomas, would you happen to know if this is still how it's supposed to
be for now?

Thanks
Ralph
