Chris Brand 31bda09d81 Documentation: devicetree: Document BCM23550 bindings
Add binding document for Broadcom BCM23550 SoC.

BCM23550 has a Cluster Dormant Control IP block that holds cores
in an idle state. Introduce a new CPU enable method in which the CDC is
accessed to bring the core online.

Broadcom Kona Family CPU Enable Method
--------------------------------------
This binding defines the enable method used for starting secondary
CPUs in the following Broadcom SoCs:
BCM23550
The enable method is specified by defining the following required
properties in the "cpu" device tree node:
- enable-method = "brcm,bcm23550";
- secondary-boot-reg = <...>;
The secondary-boot-reg property is a u32 value that specifies the
physical address of the register used to request the ROM holding pen
code release a secondary CPU. The value written to the register is
formed by encoding the target CPU id into the low bits of the
physical start address it should jump to.
Example:
cpus {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
cpu0: cpu@0 {
device_type = "cpu";
compatible = "arm,cortex-a9";
reg = <0>;
};
cpu1: cpu@1 {
device_type = "cpu";
compatible = "arm,cortex-a9";
reg = <1>;
enable-method = "brcm,bcm23550";
secondary-boot-reg = <0x3500417c>;
};
};
