Yeah, this is always going to be somewhat confusing since the driver has
to deal with all hosts from channel-mapping perspective, but only the 8
interrupts at most that reach MPU for handling interrupts. TRM has

Anyway, I have already mentioned the first 2 interrupt routing in the
first paragraph above.

I had actually used the interrupt-names always starting from "host2"
through "host9" (names from PRU perspective) previously, and I have
changed this to start indexing from 0 in this series to address an
internal review comment from Grygorii and to align with TRM. All the
TRMs (except for AM572x) actually use the names/signals "host_intr0",
"host_intr1".."host_intr7" etc for the interrupts going towards MPU.
Maybe I should actually rename the interrupt-names to be host_intrX
instead of hostX to avoid confusion and be exactly aligned with the TRM
names. I will file a bug against AM57xx TRM to align the names with all
other SoC TRMs.

I am using "output interrupt lines" to imply names w.r.t PRU vs "host
interrupt" to imply ARM GIC names.
