So you're saying that depending on whether or not the clock output is
used, there could be two interrupts?

Without looking further, it sounds like you should be setting maxItems
to 1 if #clock-cells is present and to 2 if it is not. Then if there are
two interrupts provided, the driver is free to configure whatever way it
wants. If there aren't, send everything to INTA.

Am I missing something?

Cheers,
Conor.
