[Patch v3 01/10] soc: qcom: documentation: Update SMD/RPM Docs

This patch moves the qcom,smd-rpm.txt to the correct location and splits
out the smd and rpm documentation.  In addition, a smd-rpm-regulator
document is added.

+The Qualcomm RPM over SMD regulator is modelled as a subdevice of the RPM.
+Because SMD is used as the communication transport mechanism, the RPM resides as
+a subnode of the SMD.  As such, the SMD-RPM regulator requires that the SMD and

+The SMD information for the RPM edge should be filled out.  See qcom,smd.txt for

+The RPM exposes resources to its subnodes.  The rpm_requests node must be
