From: Ma Jun <majun258 at huawei.com>
Add the mbigen msi interrupt controller bindings document.
Change since v3:
--- Change the interrupt cells definition.
--- Change the mbigen node definition.
--- Add mbigen device node as sub node of mbigen.

+Hisilicon mbigen device tree bindings.
+=======================================
+
+Mbigen means: message based interrupt generator.
+
+MBI is kind of msi interrupt only used on Non-PCI devices.
+
+To reduce the wired interrupt number connected to GIC,
+Hisilicon designed mbigen to collect and generate interrupt.
+
+
+Non-pci devices can connect to mbigen and generate the
+interrupt by writing ITS register.
+
+The mbigen chip and devices connect to mbigen have the following properties:
+
+Mbigen main node required properties:
+-------------------------------------------
+- compatible: Should be "hisilicon,mbigen-v2"
+- interrupt controller: Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
+- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
+ interrupt source. The value is 4 now.
+
+ The 1st cell is the device id.
+ The 2nd cell is the mbigen node number. This value should refer to the
+ vendor Soc specification.
+ The 3rd cell is the hardware pin number of the interrupt.
+ This value depends on the Soc design.
+ The 4th cell is the interrupt trigger type, encoded as follows:
+ 1 = edge triggered
+ 4 = level triggered
+
+- #mbigen-node-cells :Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
+ mbigen node information. The value is 3 now.
+
+ The 1st cell is the mbigen node number.
+ The 2nd cell is the interrupt numbers connected to.
+ The 3rd cell is the start value of pin offset.
+
+- reg: Specifies the base physical address and size of the Mbigen
+ registers.
+
+Sub-nodes:
+
+Mbigen has one or more mbigen device nodes which represents the devices
+connected to this mbigen chip.
+
+These nodes must have the following properties:
+- msi-parent: This property has two cells.
+ The 1st cell specifies the ITS this device connected.
+ The 2nd cell specifies the device id.
+- nr-interrupts:Specifies the total number of interrupt this device has.
+- mbigen_node: Specifies the information of mbigen nodes this device
+ connected.Some devices with many interrupts maybe connects with several
+ mbigen nodes.
+
+Examples:
+
+ mbigen_dsa: interrupt-controller at c0080000 {
+ compatible = "hisilicon,mbigen-v2";
+ interrupt-controller;
+ #interrupt-cells = <5>;
+ #mbigen-node-cells = <3>;
+ reg = <0xc0080000 0x10000>;
+
+ mbigen_device_01 {
+ msi-parent = <&its 0x40b1c>;
+ nr-interrupts = <9>;
+ mbigen_node = <1 2 0>,
+ <3 2 4>,
+ <4 5 0>;
+ }
+
+ mbigen_device_02 {
+ msi-parent = <&its 0x40b1d>;
+ nr-interrupts = <3>;
+ mbigen_node = <6 3 0>;
+ interrupt-controller;
+ }
+ };
+
+Device connect to mbigen required properties:
+----------------------------------------------------
+-interrupt-parent: Specifies the mbigen node which device connected.
+-interrupts:specifies the interrupt source.The first cell is hwirq num, the
+ second number is trigger type.
+
+Examples:
+ smmu_dsa {
+ compatible = "arm,smmu-v3";
+ reg = <0x0 0xc0040000 0x0 0x20000>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&mbigen_dsa>;
+ interrupts = <0x40b20 6 78 1>,
+ <0x40b20 6 79 1>,
+ <0x40b20 6 80 1>;
+ };
