samsung is typo'd there.

I don't believe you need either of those two properties in a node solely
used as an interrupt map.

Also, why not put the interrupt-map property directly into the main mct
node; I don't believe there's any requirement nor advantage to it being
a separate node.

That sounds like it should be two separate examples.

Actually, there's already a 2-timer example above using separate
interrupts, so why not make this example *just* be for the
single-interrupt case?
