Picking this branch to continue on I'll grab Eva's replay as well.

So taking both of these and having thought about it a bit more in my
current jet lagged state (I hate travelling - particularly with the
added amusement of a flat tyre on the plane).

To my mind we need to describe what interrupts at there as Rob says.
It's all obvious if there is only one interrupt connected (often
the case I suspect as pins are in short supply on many SoCs).

If we allow the binding to specify both pins (using names to do the
matching to which pin they are on the chip), then we could allow
the driver itself to optimize the usage according to what is enabled.
Note though that this can come later - for now we just need to allow
the specification of both interrupts if they are present.

So lets talk about the ideal ;)
Probably makes sense to separate dataready and the events if possible.
Ideal would be to even allow individual events to have there own pins
as long as there are only two available. So we need a heuristic to
work out what interrupts to put where. It doesn't work well as a lookup
table (I tried it)

#define ADXL345_OVERRUN = BIT(0)
#define ADXL345_WATERMARK = BIT(1)
#define ADXL345_FREEFALL = BIT(2)
#define ADXL345_INACTIVITY = BIT(3)
#define ADXL345_ACTIVITY = BIT(4)
#define ADXL345_DOUBLE_TAP = BIT(5)
#define ADXL345_SINGLE_TAP = BIT(6)
#define ADXL345_DATA_READY = BIT(7)

So some function that takes the bitmap of what is enabled and
tries to divide it sensibly.

int adxl345_int_heuristic(u8 input, u8 *output)
{
long bounce;
switch (hweight8(&input))
{
case 0 ... 1:
*output = input;
break;
case 2:
*output = BIT(ffs(&input)); //this will put one on each interrupt.
break;
case 3 ... 7: //now it gets tricky. Perhaps always have dataready and watermark on own interrupt if set?

if (input & (ADXL345_DATA_READY | ADXL345_WATERMARK))
output = input & (ADXL345_DATA_READY | ADXL345_WATERMARK);
else // taps always on same one etc...
}
}

Then your interrupt handler will need to look at the incoming and work out if it
needs to read the status register to know what it has. If it doesn't
need to then it doesn't do so. Be careful to only clear the right
interrupts though in that case as it is always possible both are set.

Anyhow, right now all that needs to be there is the binding to allow two interrupts.
Absolutely fine if for now the driver only uses the first one.
