No, marvell,armadaxp-gpio is required for per-cpu interrupt support. I fixed it recently:

For per-cpu interrupt support is marvell,armadaxp-gpio needed and
therefore it cannot be deprecated.

What can be deprecated is marvell,armada-370-gpio and it can be replaced
by marvell,orion-gpio, which covers _all_ SoCs starting from the oldest
one = Orion. See discussion for more details:
