[PATCH v3 06/11] dt-bindings: power: Add apple,pmgr-pwrstate binding

This syscon child node represents a single SoC device controlled by the
PMGR block. This layout allows us to declare all device power state
controls (power/clock gating and reset) in the device tree, including
dependencies, instead of hardcoding it into the driver. The register
layout is uniform.

Each pmgr-pwrstate node provides genpd and reset features, to be
consumed by downstream device nodes.

Future SoCs are expected to use backwards compatible registers, and the
"apple,pmgr-pwrstate" represents any such interfaces (possibly with
additional features gated by the more specific compatible), allowing
them to be bound without driver updates. If a backwards incompatible
change is introduced in future SoCs, it will require a new compatible,
such as "apple,pmgr-pwrstate-v2".

+description: |
+  Apple SoCs include PMGR blocks responsible for power management,
+  which can control various clocks, resets, power states, and
+  performance features. This binding describes the device power
+  state registers, which control power states and resets.
+
+  Each instance of a power controller within the PMGR syscon node
+  represents a generic power domain provider, as documented in
+  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power-domain.yaml.
+  The provider controls a single SoC block. The power hierarchy is
+  represented via power-domains relationships between these nodes.
+
+  See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/apple/apple,pmgr.yaml
+  for the top-level PMGR node documentation.
