MIPS: SEAD-3: Set interrupt-parent per-device, not at root node
The SEAD-3 board may be configured with or without a MIPS Global Interrupt Controller (GIC). Because of this we have a device tree with a default case of a GIC present, and code to fixup the device tree based upon a configuration register that indicates the presence of the GIC. In order to keep this DT fixup code simple, the interrupt-parent property was specified at the root node of the SEAD-3 DT, allowing the fixup code to simply change this property to the phandle of the CPU interrupt controller if a GIC is not present & affect all interrupt-using devices at once. This however causes a problem if we do have a GIC & the device tree is used as-is, because the interrupt-parent property of the root node applies to the CPU interrupt controller node. This causes a cycle when of_irq_init() attempts to probe interrupt controllers in order and boots fail due to a lack of configured interrupts, with this message printed on the kernel console: [ 0.000000] OF: of_irq_init: children remain, but no parents Fix this by removing the interrupt-parent property from the DT root node & instead setting it for each device which uses interrupts, ensuring that the CPU interrupt controller node has no interrupt-parent & allowing of_irq_init() to identify it as the root interrupt controller.
