[PATCH v3 1/7] dt/bindings: Add binding for the Raspberry Pi clock provider

Eric Anholt eric at anholt.net

The hardware clocks are not controllable by the ARM, so we have to
make requests to the firmware to do so from the VPU side.  This will
let us replace fixed clocks in our DT with actual clock control (and
correct frequency information).

v2: Include the dt-bindings header in this commit instead of the next
    one.  Make the clock indices match the firmware clock IDs.  Rename
    the binding's compat string.  Move the firmware phandle to be
    under a vendor-specific namespace.

+Raspberry Pi firmware clock provider.
+
+The Raspberry Pi architecture doesn't provide direct access to the
+CLOCKMAN peripheral from the ARM side, so Linux has to make requests
+to the VPU firmware to program them.
+
+This binding uses the common clock binding:
+Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/clock-bindings.txt
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible:		Should be "raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware-clocks"
+
+- #clock-cells:		Shall have value <1>.  The permitted clock-specifier
+			  values can be found in
+			  include/dt-bindings/clk/raspberrypi.h.
+
+- raspberrypi,firmware:	Phandle to the firmware driver node.
+
+Example:
+
+firmware_clocks: firmware-clocks {
+	compatible = "raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware-clocks";
+	#clock-cells = <1>;
+	raspberrypi,firmware = <&firmware>;
+};
