Partially this explains my question on previous patch, so consider
reordering them.

And with combined knowledge, your driver now depends on interrupt names
to setup interrupts. "interrupts" property alone is not sufficient, so
you should encode it in the binding and explain in rationale why this is
required (it is a change in ABI).
