Most of our decisions are made based on the type of GPU attached but it wouldn't
hurt to make this future proof.  I'll do it.

This has mainly existed just for compatibility issues.  We do only have the one
interrupt so lets zap the downstream name and never look back.

They are indeed optional now.

We could use the GPU revision for that, but our approach has been to make all
clocks optional for all targets.  Eventually when we go to power up if the GPU
core ends up needing a clock and it isn't defined we fail probe at that point.
I'm not sure if that is resilient enough for DT purposes though.
