It's preferrable for interrupt controllers as #address-cells of the
parent interrupt controller defines the size of the interrupt unit
specifier in the child in the interrupt tree.

I think there's an ongoing argument as to whether the absence of
#address-cells should be the same as #address-cells = 0 in that specific
case but I'm not sure the code does the right thing so let's have it
explicit.
