Yes the current driver works without using the extra interrupts on the
RZ/V2H. The extra interrupts on the RZ/V2H are just sort of duplicate
ie
- Transmit End/Data Ready interrupt , for which we we have two
seperate interrupts already
- Receive buffer full interrupt (EDGE trigger), for which we already
have a Level triggered interrupt
- Transmit buffer empty interrupt (EDGE trigger), for which we already
have a Level triggered interrupt

Are you suggesting to not fallback on RZ/G2L and instead make RZ/V2H
an explicit one so that in future we handle these 3 extra interrupts?

Cheers,
