Okay, I will update.

The APLIC spec defines maximum interrupt sources to be 1023.

The node's domain is delegating its interrupts to the child domain.

For APLIC, the interrupt delegation is always from parent domain
to the child domain.

I will add a statement about this in the description.

Okay, I will update.

Okay, I will rename it to "riscv,delegation".
