Please don't use hex for numbers that make more sense as decimal.
[Lu Yangbo-B47093] The hex value is register value, I think it's better to use hex.

This isn't adding a node -- it's changing values. If the old ones were wrong, explain that in the changelog.

Also, p2020si-post.dtsi already adds interrupts to this node (and it contains one more interrupt than the above), and it includes pq3-etsec1-timer-0.dtsi which contains the compatible and reg (and interrupts with two specifiers). Probably all of these should be using pq3-etsec1-timer-0.dtsi and only specifying the board-specific values.

[Lu Yangbo-B47093] I will modify according your comments here.
