Commit Message

Add two compatibles for binman entries, as a starting point for the
schema.

Note that, after discussion on v2, we decided to keep the existing
meaning of label so as not to require changes to existing userspace
software when moving to use binman nodes to specify the firmware
layout.

Note also that, after discussion on v6, we decided to use the same
'fixed-partition' schema for the binman features, so this version
adds a new 'binman.yaml' file providing the new compatibles to the
existing partition.yaml binding.

(no changes since v10)

Changes in v10:
- Drop binman,entry since it is likely not necessary
- Put the description back

Changes in v8:
- Switch the patch ordering so the partition change comes first

Changes in v7:
- Adjust MAINTAINERS entry
- Put compatible strings into the 'fixed-partition' binding

Changes in v5:
- Add mention of why 'binman' is the vendor
- Drop  'select: false'
- Tidy up the compatible setings
- Use 'tfa-bl31' instead of 'atf-bl31'

Changes in v4:
- Correct selection of multiple compatible strings

Changes in v3:
- Drop fixed-partitions from the example
- Use compatible instead of label

Changes in v2:
- Use plain partition@xxx for the node name

+title: Binman entries
+
+description: |
+  This corresponds to a binman 'entry'. It is a single partition which holds
+  data of a defined type.
+
+  Binman uses the type to indicate what data file / type to place in the
+  partition. There are quite a number of binman-specific entry types, such as
+  section, fill and files, to be added later.
