Wow I even had to search.. it's on p7-13 here..
Right but it does start from a certain bit and progress linearly
across the rest of the register.
However, what is interrupt 0 and what is interrupt 16? Do you start
from the left or the right (i.e. Motorola big endian or Rest Of
World big endian)??

I think the interesting note is that picking out "what does IRQ 4
in the main interrupt group handle" or picking out a device and
saying "this is IRQ 10" is still, even with your explanation, a
matter of luck and handedness.
Personally I would count from the right (Motorola bit 31) and
work my way from LSB to MSB, but Motorola likes it's backwards
representation and so do some other people. So, does bit 31
equal interrupt 0 or interrupt 16? :)
Then there are the status encoded registers, which report which
IRQ is firing. They are just values. But which value corresponds
to which interrupt (left or right reading) here or do they even
have completely different ones?
