Indeed there are 4 types: NSR, SR, SEI, REI.

Until now only NSR were supported.

I'm adding SEI support.

In the future, people might want to add support for SR/REI as well but
they have never been supported in mainline. When support for these
interrupts will have been contributed, I suppose it will easy to add
two other compatibles with the same formatting "marvell,cp110-icu-xxx"?

I hope the changes in the driver will make such contribution almost
trivial.

Thanks,
Miquèl
