Fair enough.

The problem for me is that the uio-pdrv-genirq is so generic it could 
apply to pretty much any hardware device. The driver has dt-awareness 
but it currently doesn't have any built-in compatible string (it is set 
via a module param).

My use-case is a microcontoller with a userspace driver all I need out 
of the kernel is i2c access and interrupts. Any suggestions as to how to 
move forward with this.
