Whilst re-running checks before sending my dt-fixes PR today I noticed
that I had introduced another dtbs_check warning by applying one of the
patches in it.

PolarFire SoC has 4 cache interrupts, unlike the fu540 (which the dts
re-uses the compatible of currently) which only has 3. Add a new string
to the binding like should've been done in the first place...

The driver does not care which compatible it matches against, and just
uses as many interrupts as are in the dts so will happily work away
without any needed changes there.

@Palmer, you can take this directly as long as my fixes PR for rc3 is
merged if you like, since the application path for the binding is via
you anyway. I suppose I could take both too, but whatever works best
for you (:

Thanks,
Conor.

Correct, but you have to account for unknown functional differences
aka errata as well. Otherwise, we need firmware updates to enable the
OS to handle errata.

Because it is in 2 different positions. While we can express that the
last N entries in a list are optional, there is no way in json-schema
to express entries at the beginning or in the middle are optional.

@Palmer, I have applied these to my dt-fixes, branch as the commit they
fix is there too. As I mentioned on IRC, patches for this dt-binding are
usually merged via the riscv tree so I have taken the liberty of bundling
it with the dts change. You may get this in a PR friday morning, but more
likely early next week.

Conor.
