This warning come from scripts/dtc/checks.c
and was introduced by commit 3eb619b2f7d8 ("scripts/dtc: Update to upstream version v1.6.0-11-g9d7888cbf19c").

In my opinion it's false warning as there is no requirement to have  #address-cells in interrupt provider node.
by the way, above commit description says: "The interrupt_provider check is noisy, so turn it off for now."
