The VCHIQ communication channel can be provided by BCM283x and Capri
SoCs, to communicate with the VPU-side OS services.

+Broadcom VCHIQ firmware services
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible:	Should be "brcm,bcm2835-vchiq"
+- reg:		Physical base address and length of the doorbell register pair
+- interrupts:	The interrupt number
+		  See bindings/interrupt-controller/brcm,bcm2835-armctrl-ic.txt
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- cache-line-size:
+		Size of L2 cache lines.  The VPU firmware detects
+		  this property and overrides it with the actual L2
+		  cache line size it's using when loading the
+		  device-tree.  Determines the required alignment of
+		  offsets/sizes of VCHIQ pagelists.  If missing, the
+		  firmware assumes an older kernel using 32-byte
+		  alignment.
+
+Example:
+
+vchiq at 7e00b840 {
+	compatible = "brcm,bcm2835-vchiq";
+	reg = <0x7e00b840 0xf>;
+	interrupts = <0 2>;
+	cache-line-size: <32>;
+};
