Hi Jason

I like the idea, but i think it needs to go a bit further. 

1) It should have an IRQ domain, like the other IRQ chips we have.
2) It should have a DT binding, like the other IRQ chips we have.
3) We then pass the timer interrupt via DT to the timer driver.
4) We than pass the watchdog interrupt via DT.

We plan to remove old style platforms in the next few cycles, so its
important that changes like this are orientated towards DT but have
the necessary backward compatibility for the old ways for the boards
not yet converted. I think for Dove all boards are DT based...

3) is not so simple, because we currently don't have a timer binding
for Orion SoC. However, with this cleanup, we are much closer to being
able to use the 370/XP timer code.

I think it would be better to do this in kirkwood_init_irq(). Same for
the other platforms.

Could you add a #define for this 4. I guess its an interrupt enable
mask? Could regs.mask be used?

Maybe the name orion_bridge would be better?
