+* ARM Generic Interrupt Controller
+
+ARM SMP cores are often associated with a GIC, providing per processor
+interrupts (PPI), shared processor interrupts (SPI) and software
+generated interrupts (SGI).
+
+Primary GIC is attached directly to the CPU and typically has PPIs. Secondary GICs are
+cascaded into the upward interrupt controller and do not have PPIs.
+
+Main node required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be one of:
+	"arm,cortex-a9-gic"
+	"arm,arm11mp-gic"
+- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
+- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
+  interrupt source.  The type shall be a <u32> and the value shall be 2.
+- reg : Specifies base physical address(s) and size of the GIC registers. The
+  first 2 values are the GIC distributor register base and size. The 2nd 2
+  values are the GIC cpu interface register base and size.
+- #size-cells : Shall be <0> as PPIs don't have size for reg property. Optional
+  for secondary GICs.
+
+Optional
+- interrupts	: optional, used on secondary GICs only
+
+PPI sub-nodes required properties:
+
+- compatible : should match the main node with "-ppi" appended. one of:
+	"arm,cortex-a9-gic-ppi"
+	"arm,arm11mp-gic-ppi"
+- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
+- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
+  interrupt source.  The type shall be a <u32> and the value shall be 1 as PPIs
+  don't have edge/level settings.
+- reg : Specifies cpu number the PPIs are attached to.
+
+Example:
+
+	intc: interrupt-controller@fff11000 {
+		compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-gic";
+		#interrupt-cells = <2>;
+		#size-cells = <0>;
+		#address-cells = <1>;
+		interrupt-controller;
+		reg = <0xfff11000 0x1000>,
+		      <0xfff10100 0x100>;
+		      
+		gicppi0: gic-ppi@0 {
+			compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-gic-ppi";
+			#interrupt-cells = <1>;
+			interrupt-controller;
+			reg = <0>;
+		};
+		gicppi1: gic-ppi@1 {
+			compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-gic-ppi";
+			#interrupt-cells = <1>;
+			interrupt-controller;
+			reg = <1>;
+		};
+	};
