This is a reworked version of my previous post. It addresses Jassi's
comments on the driver and also tries to cover Rob's and Mark's comments
on the binding documentation.
I dropped the more example-like DT changes from v1, as they are actually
not meant to be merged into the Linux tree, but instead are provided as
part of some firmware actually implementing this functionality.

Please let me know what you think.

Could you please quickly explain what it would take to provide SCMI on top
of this instead of SCPI?

https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/6/7/624
The SCMI (and SCPI) code is broken, that is, unless the firmware/SM is
trained to ignore the random value (pointer to a structure) passed via
R1. Which may be possible to do, but is surely a sign of poor
implementation. And may not be possible if some protocol other than
SCMI runs in parallel.

Andre, your take please?

Thanks.
