This seemed to do the trick; what do you think of the attached? This isn't a board-specific change, so I dropped it into the common fdt_mips.c code. On the other hand, this left it a bit open as to what the right compatible= line to use was, so feedback there most welcome.

Change 219933 by rwatson at rwatson_zenith_cl_cam_ac_uk on 2013/01/02 09:32:16

	Implement an FDT PIC decode routine to use when no PIC has been
	configured, which assumes a cascade back to the nexus bus (e.g.,
	the on-board CP0 interrupt management parts on the MIPS).  If the
	soc bus in a MIPS DTS file is declared as "mips4k,cp0"-compatible,
	then this will be enabled.  This is sufficient to allow IRQs to be
	configured on BERI.
