Not really, I think it's not the first time we've discussed this. But as I see things over and over, my tolerance for another instance without solving the problem for everyone diminishes. And what other leverage do I have? Additionally, how long we have to support something comes into play. I have no idea for a Loongson MSI controller.

The only case where > it makes sense IMHO is when the interrupt controller is a multiplexer. So we've had the same kind of property for interrupt multiplexers.
