I guess there is a possibility of a driver in some other OS assuming INT2, but seems an odd 'default' choice. Also odd for a writer of DT for a platform to assume it. There is a thing that comes up in spec orgs when discussing whether to rush out an errata. "Is this bug something people would get wrong thinking the answer was clear, or something where the would ask a question?" Anyone who thinks INT2 is the obvious choice for me falls into the would ask category. However, in the linux driver we would would go from assuming no interrupts to assuming the wrong one. That's indeed bad. So I guess this doesn't work. Oh well no default it is.
