Quoting AIA spec:
"For the purpose of locating the memory pages of interrupt files in the
address space, assume each hart (or each hart within a group) has a
unique hart number that may or may not be related to the unique hart
identifiers (“hart IDs”) that the RISC-V Privileged Architecture assigns
to harts."

It is very easy to get confused between the AIA "hart index" and
"hart IDs" defined by the RISC-V Privileged specification but these
are two very different things. The AIA "hart index" over here is the
bits in the address of an IMSIC file.

This DT binding follows the IMSIC file arrangement in the address
space as defined by the section "3.6 Arrangement of the memory
regions of multiple interrupt files" of the AIA specification. This
arrangement is MANDATORY for platforms having both APLIC
and IMSIC because in MSI-mode the APLIC generates target
MSI address based the IMSIC file arrangement described in the
section "3.6 Arrangement of the memory regions of multiple
interrupt files". In fact, this also applies to virtual platforms
created by hypervisors (KVM, Xen, ...)
