[PATCH v3 1/4] dt-bindings: interrupt-controller: sifive,plic: Document Renesas RZ/Five SoC

From: Samuel Holland

From: Lad Prabhakar <prabhakar.mahadev-lad.rj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Renesas RZ/Five (R9A07G043) SoC is equipped with NCEPLIC100 RISC-V
platform level interrupt controller from Andes Technology. NCEPLIC100
ignores subsequent EDGE interrupts until the previous EDGE interrupt is
completed, due to this issue we have to follow different interrupt flow
for EDGE and LEVEL interrupts.

This patch documents Renesas RZ/Five (R9A07G043) SoC.

Changes in v3:
- Add a more detailed explanation for why #interrupt-cells differs
- Add andestech,nceplic100 as a fallback compatible
- Separate the conditional part of the binding into two blocks (one for
the PLIC implementation and the other for the SoC integration)

+ The PLIC supports both edge-triggered and level-triggered interrupts. For

+ needs to know the trigger type, so it can reorder the interrupt flow to avoid
+ missing interrupts. This special handling is needed by at least the Renesas
