It would require that the GPIO interrupt number space of the PDC matches
the pin numbering of the TLMM, to be somewhat maintainable.

And it would still require DT-writers to know that if the implementation
of a compatible, that references a TLMM IRQ, wants to mark the IRQ wake
capable it needs to reference the PDC instead...while still having a
pinmux/pinconf setting for the TLMM.

And for gpio_to_irq() we would need to do the mapping that you suggest,
so the TLMM still needs to have all these references to the PDC.


So I think it would be nice if we could avoid this scenario, but I don't
have any good ideas of how to do this right now...
