Agreed. It should describe interrupts the h/w has, not what the driver
(currently) uses.

The binding is wrong already in that it says a single interrrupt. The
example has 2 though. Add the 2nd interrupt and define the order such
that you don't break the current driver. Probably that means ASYS is
first.
