Agree.

Depend to which INTC0 or INTC1 used.
INTC0 and INTC1 are two kinds of interrupt controller with enable and raw status registers for use.
INTC0 is used to assert GIC(#192~#197) if interrupt in INTC1 asserted. There are 6 GIC interrupt number(#192~#197) used in one INTC0.
INTC1 is used to assert INTC0 if interrupt of modules asserted. There are 32 module interrupts used in one INTC1.

Agree. Would change to the following.
examples:
- |
#include <dt-bindings/interrupt-controller/arm-gic.h>

bus {
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;

interrupt-controller@12101b00 {
compatible = "aspeed,ast2700-intc-ic";
reg = <0 0x12101b00 0 0x10>;
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
interrupt-controller;
interrupts = <GIC_SPI 192 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 193 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 194 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 195 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 196 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 197 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 198 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 199 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 200 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>,
<GIC_SPI 201 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
};
};
