Cut and paste?  Or it ends up on the same pin as the bsy? In which case that's
a single interrupt and it's up to software to decide how to use. I'll guess
it comes on GP1?

More interrupt names.  We shouldn't restrict someone wiring all 4 if they want
to - we'll just use 2 that we choose in the driver.

interrupt-names
  minItems: 1
  items:
    - const: busy-gp0
    - const: busy-gp1
    - const: alert-gp2
    - cosnt: alert-gp1

Ok. I'm curious, how does it actually differ from a differential channel?
What was that test?  It doesn't cope with an actual differential pair and needs
a stable value on the negative?

Ok. I'm not totally sure I see how this comes together but will wait for v3 rather
than trying to figure it out now.
