Subject: of/irq: Drop obsolete 'interrupts' vs 'interrupts-extended' text
From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 66865de4314caca30598244b86817e774c188afa upstream.
a9ecdc0fdc54 ("of/irq: Fix lookup to use 'interrupts-extended' property
first") updated the description to say that:
- Both 'interrupts' and 'interrupts-extended' may be present
- Software should prefer 'interrupts-extended'
- Software that doesn't comprehend 'interrupts-extended' may use
'interrupts'
But there is still a paragraph at the end that prohibits having both and
says 'interrupts' should be preferred.
Remove the contradictory text.
