ACPM (Alive Clock and Power Manager) is a firmware that operates on the
APM (Active Power Management) module that handles overall power management
activities. APM is built around a GREBE processor.
In linux we have an ACPM protocol driver that communicates with the firmware
via mailbox channels. It's similar to arm,scmi if you want.
