Sounds like a Linux problem, not DT...

The thing is that any *-names property is supposed to be a local to
block name. For example, a UART may have a TX irq. It's local name is
just "TX IRQ", but then upstream at the interrupt controller it may be
"UART1 TX IRQ". If you have multiple instances, the local names are
the same.

If we lose the node name from /proc/interrupts when interrupt-names is
used, then we should fix that.
