IIRC, originally the IRQ to pin mapping was created when gpio_to_irq
was called with a GPIO handle. The mapping in turn is used to mux
the pin into EINT mode.

If the mapping is created during gpio_to_irq, we can't use the
interrupts directly, i.e. through the DT with "interrupts = <&pio A 4>".

Instead we'd have to use "gpios = <&pio A B>", then pass the gpio
through to gpio_to_irq.
