Looks like I received many maintainerships recently ;-)

No they're not.

First entry is the Interrupt control register.
Second entry is the Interrupt priority register.
Third entry is the Interrupt source register.
Fourth entry is the Interrupt mask register.
Fifth entry is the Interrupt mask clear register.
Sixth entry is the optional Interrupt control register for ICR0 with IRLM bit.

The fact that SH/R-Mobile SoCs have 4 instances of this block, with
interleaved registers, and different register widths, doesn't help much,
and I understand that was the reason for the individual register
descriptions.

This is a very old binding, which tried to describe everything in DT,
using a generic compatible value.  Of course this lead to a mess when
having different register layouts, optional registers, and a
sense-bitfield-width property...

The modern way would be to describe all differences in the driver, based
on SoC-specific compatible values.
Given this is for rather old SoCs, I see no point in upgrading the bindings.

Yep. Some registers are 8-bit on some SoCs...

Which is wrong.  But the description was correct.
