For both we could additionally check the DPU revision, and for INTF we
could check for TYPE_DSI.  Both would aid in extra validation, if we
require the IRQ to be present or absent under these conditions.

It might also help to document this, either here and on the respective
struct fields so that catalog implementers know when they should supply
or leave out an IRQ?
