For example:
IRQ_SW_OFFSET = 32

        DTS   HW(line)   LINUX
timer - 2     3          35
sysace  4     5          37
serial  5     6          38

HW line is setup DTS + NO_IRQ_OFFSET to ensure that NO_IRQ is always 0.


This is really confusing. DTS is the HW numbering. The last 2 columns
are both Linux IRQ numbering. Just create a single define for an offset.
Then I would combine this into the previous patch.


DTS generator, which we used for DTS generator for more than 2 years,
generates for the first IRQ in the system this property "interrupts = < 0 2 >;"
Which is HW line 1 and linux irq_data->hwirq 0 (because of shift) and 
irq_data->irq = 1
for SW_OFFSET=0.

Anyway no problem to keep just NO_IRQ_OFFSET value.

Thanks,
Michal
