Do you foresee using SMC/HVC for this firmware even on future platforms?
If not, I suggest to keep the protocol part separate from the transport i.e.
smc/hvc via ATF. It could be replaced with mailbox or some h/w mechanism in
future ?

We have PSCI and EEMI interfaces exposed to linux from ATF. PSCI is
an EEMI client. We do not have current plans to switch to mailbox as it
will require 2 communication channels to PMU as PSCI is through ATF.

OK, but I just saw some bindings that has mailbox interface, honestly
it's getting too confusing with multiple series on the same thing
floating and hence I requested to put it together as one series.
