+Krait Processor Sub-system (KPSS) Application Clock Controller (ACC)
+
+The KPSS ACC provides clock, power domain, and reset control to a Krait CPU.
+There is one ACC register region per CPU within the KPSS remapped region as
+well as an alias register region that remaps accesses to the ACC associated
+with the CPU accessing the region.
Is the mapping of ACC register to a specific processor well-defined? I
assume it's just in order of MPIDR.Aff0.

To maintain our collective sanity in the face of possible future
implementations, do you have an idea as to whether this might need to be
extended in future for multiple clusters / reordered IDs and so on?

I assume we'd just allocate a new compatible string if those get a
little crazy.
Actually, I'm getting too hung-up on future-proofing. Assuming the
mapping is well-defined for current implementations we can always add an
additional property later if required.

Thanks Mark. As far as I know it will always be a one to one
relationship. I can't predict the future though so you're suggestion
seems like a good escape plan if needed.
