This patch adds devicetree binding for System Control and Management
Interface (SCMI) Message Protocol used between the Application Cores(AP)
and the System Control Processor(SCP). The MHU peripheral provides a
mechanism for inter-processor communication between SCP's M3 processor
and AP.

SCP offers control and management of the core/cluster power states,
various power domain DVFS including the core/cluster, certain system
clocks configuration, thermal sensors and many others.

SCMI protocol is developed as better replacement to the existing SCPI
which is not flexible and easily extensible.

"dt-bindings: arm: ..." for the subject.

Isn't this implied by mboxes property?

This compatible doesn't match the example.

Fixed locally, will be part of next version.

Yes. But the reason I have added an explicit method is considering other
possible future methods. E.g. SMC is being discussed as one possible
method. And if the function ids become part of some specification, then
only method is sufficient in that case.

Anyways I can drop them if you think it's unnecessary.

Ah, sorry for that. Fixed locally as "arm,scmi-shmem" everywhere now and
dropped all juno specific compatibles. I will have a juno specifc
document when it will get used on Juno platform.

+System Control and Management Interface (SCMI) Message Protocol
+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+The SCMI is intended to allow agents such as OSPM to manage various functions
+that are provided by the hardware platform it is running on, including power
+and performance functions.
+
+This binding is intended to define the interface the firmware implementing
+the SCMI as described in ARM document number ARM DUI 0922B ("ARM System Control
+and Management Interface Platform Design Document")[0] provide for OSPM in
+the device tree.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : shall be "arm,scmi"
+- method : The method of calling the SCMI firmware. Only permitted value
+	   currently is:
+	   "mailbox-doorbell" : When mailbox doorbell is used as a mechanism
+				to alert the presence of a messages and/or
+				notification
+- mboxes: List of phandle and mailbox channel specifiers. It should contain
+	  exactly one or two mailboxes, one for transmitting messages("tx")
+	  and another optional for receiving the notifications("rx") if
+	  supported.
+- mbox-names: shall be "tx" or "rx"
+- shmem : List of phandle pointing to the shared memory(SHM) area as per
+	  generic mailbox client binding.
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/mailbox.txt for more details
+about the generic mailbox controller and client driver bindings.
+
+Each protocol supported shall have a sub-node with corresponding compatible
+as described in the following sections. If the platform supports dedicated
+communication channel for a particular protocol, the 3 properties namely:
+mboxes, mbox-names and shmem shall be present in the sub-node corresponding
+to that protocol.
+
+Clock/Performance bindings for the clocks/OPPs based on SCMI Message Protocol
+------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This binding uses the common clock binding[1].
+
+Required properties:
+- #clock-cells : Should be 1. Contains the Clock ID value used by SCMI commands.
+
+Power domain bindings for the power domains based on SCMI Message Protocol
+------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This binding uses the generic power domain binding[4].
+
+PM domain providers
+===================
+
+Required properties:
+ - #power-domain-cells : Should be 1. Contains the device or the power
+			 domain ID value used by SCMI commands.
+
+PM domain consumers
+===================
+
+Required properties:
+ - power-domains : A phandle and PM domain specifier as defined by bindings of
+                   the power controller specified by phandle.
+
+Sensor bindings for the sensors based on SCMI Message Protocol
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+SCMI provides an API to access the various sensors on the SoC.
+
+Required properties:
+- #thermal-sensor-cells: should be set to 1. This property follows the
+			 thermal device tree bindings[2].
+
+			 Valid cell values are raw identifiers (Sensor ID)
+			 as used by the firmware. Refer to  platform details
+			 for your implementation for the IDs to use.
+
+SRAM and Shared Memory for SCMI
+-------------------------------
+
+A small area of SRAM is reserved for SCMI communication between application
+processors and SCP.
+
+The properties should follow the generic mmio-sram description found in [3]
+
+Each sub-node represents the reserved area for SCMI.
+
+Required sub-node properties:
+- reg : The base offset and size of the reserved area with the SRAM
+- compatible : should be "arm,scp-shmem" for Non-secure SRAM based
+	       shared memory
