[PATCH 14/17] dt-bindings/interrupt-controller: add description for Marvell SEI node

Describe the SEI (System Error Interrupt) controller driver. The
controller is part of the GIC. It aggregates two types of interrupts,
wired and MSIs from respectively the AP and the CPs, into a single SPI
interrupt.

+Marvell SEI (System Error Interrupt) Controller
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Marvell SEI (System Error Interrupt) controller is an interrupt aggregator.
+It receives interrupts from several sources and aggregates them to a single
+interrupt line (an SPI) on the primary interrupt controller.
+
+The IRQ chip can handle up to 64 SEIs, a set comes from the AP and is
+wired while a second set comes from the CPs by the mean of MSIs. Each
+'domain' is represented as a subnode.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: should be "marvell,armada-8k-sei".
+- reg: SEI registers location and length.
+- interrupts: identifies the parent IRQ that will be triggered.
+- #address-cells: should be '1', represents the position of the first
+                  IRQ of a given type in the SEI range.
+- #size-cells: should be '1', represents the number of a given type of
+               IRQs.
+
+Child node 'sei-wired-controller' required properties:
+
+- reg: the range of wired interrupts.
+- #interrupt-cells: number of cells to define an SEI wired interrupt
+                    coming from the AP, should be 1. The cell is the IRQ
+                    number.
+- interrupt-controller: identifies the node as an interrupt controller.
+
+Child node 'sei-msi-controller' required properties:
+
+- reg: the range of non-wired interrupts triggered by way of MSIs.
+- msi-controller: identifies the node as an MSI controller.
+
+Example:
+
+        sei: sei at 3f0200 {
+               compatible = "marvell,armada-8k-sei";
+               reg = <0x3f0200 0x40>;
+               interrupts = <GIC_SPI 0 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
+               #address-cells = <1>;
+               #size-cells = <1>;
+
+               sei_wired_controller: sei-wired-controller at 0 {
+                       reg = <0 21>;
+                       #interrupt-cells = <1>;
+                       interrupt-controller;
+               };
+
+               sei_msi_controller: sei-msi-controller at 21 {
+                       reg = <21 43>;
+                       msi-controller;
+               };
+       };
