Is this the only incompatibility? 

AFAIK the lpc23xx series uses a ARM9 core and has more (different)
on-chip peripherals and memory. I have currently no clue about that, but
I think that supporting the lpc23xx in a different tree would make sense
iff there more incompatibilities than just the interrupt stuff.

But renaming the lpc2xxx in lpc21xx_lpc22xx is something I wouldn't do.
I would just leave it as it is, adding a new CPU without disturbing any
old once.
