I'm sorry, I should've included this in the commit message.

The other half of the patch gets rid of a DT validation fail when
interrupts-extended is used instead of interrupts:

.../arch/arm64/boot/dts/mediatek/mt8195-cherry-tomato-r1.dtb: ec@0:
'interrupts' is a required property
from schema $id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/mfd/google,cros-ec.yaml#


maxItems for interrupts-extended was included for completeness. Maybe it
isn't needed? But then how would the validator know how many items should
there be when interrupts-extended is used
