Okay. I will temporarily disregard the check patch warnings in the next 
version and correct the format of the AI-generated tag.

Okay, I'll address this in the next version of the patch.

Actually, this part of the description was not AI-generated. However, 
I’d like to confirm the issue you mentioned: are you saying that this 
description is written too verbosely?
Then, do you think there are still issues with the revised version?
   interrupts:
     minItems: 1
     maxItems: 8
     description:
       Either one interrupt per channel (8 interrupts), or one
       combined interrupt for all channels.
