The peripheral identification defined at the product level corresponds 
to the interrupt source number.

SoC           External Interrupts    Peripheral ID
AT91RM9200    - IRQ0–IRQ6            25 - 31
SAMA5D2       - IRQ0–IRQn            49
SAMA5D3       - IRQ0–IRQn            47
SAMA5D4       - IRQ0–IRQn            56
SAM9x60       - IRQ0–IRQn            31

To reflect these constraints in bindings, I intend to make the following 
changes.

   atmel,external-irqs:
     $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array
     description: u32 array of external irqs.
     if:
       properties:
         compatible:
           contains:
             const: atmel,at91rm9200-aic
     then:
       minItems: 1
       maxItems: 7
     else:
       minItems: 1
       maxItems: 1
