Indeed, that's the case for rza1-irqc.

Of course I had tried that before[1];

|    interrupt-map must be parsed 8 times.

Or is there a better way?

In the mean time, drivers/irqchip/irq-ls-extirq.c has landed, which was
mimiced after irq-renesas-rza1.c.

The driver code indeed doesn't account for #address-cells, but the
binding says it must be zero anyway.
