The example contains an interrupt-names property that is not documented.
If you want to name interrupts, the exact name strings need to
be mandated by the binding. Alternatively just drop the name.
I notice that the driver requests the first interrupt without giving
a name anyway, and the description above suggests that there can
only be one interrupt.

Hi Arnd,
Yes, we can probably just drop the interrupt name field.
It will be done in the next version of the patch set.
Thank you,
Stathis
