Samuel Holland e72a6be4fc sunxi: binman: Add support for including SCP firmware
Allwinner sun50i SoCs contain an OpenRISC 1000 CPU that functions as a
System Control Processor, or SCP. ARM Trusted Firmware (ATF)
communicates with the SCP over SCPI to implement the PSCI system
suspend, shutdown and reset functionality. Currently, SCP firmware is
optional; the system will boot and run without it, but system suspend
will be unavailable.

Since all communication with the SCP is mediated by ATF, the only thing
U-Boot needs to do is load the firmware into SRAM. The SCP firmware
occupies the last 16KiB of SRAM A2, immediately following ATF.

# This file contains help messages for missing external blobs. Each message has
# a tag (MUST be just lower-case text, digits and hyphens) starting in column 1,
# followed by a colon (:) to indicate its start. The message can include any
# number of lines, including blank lines.
#
# When looking for a tag, Binman uses the value of 'missing-msg' for the entry,
# the entry name or the entry type, in that order
