[PATCH v1 4/5] dt-bindings: remoteproc: add binding for Microchip IPC remoteproc

Microchip family of RISC-V SoCs typically has or more clusters. These
clusters can be configured to run in Asymmetric Multi Processing (AMP)
mode.

Add a dt-binding for the Microchip IPC Remoteproc platform driver.

+title: Microchip IPC Remote Processor
+
+description:
+  Microchip family of RISC-V SoCs typically have one or more
+  clusters. These clusters can be configured to run in an Asymmetric
+  Multi Processing (AMP) mode where clusters are split in independent
+  software contexts.
+
+  This document defines the binding for the remoteproc component that
+  loads and boots firmwares on remote clusters.
+
+  This SBI interface is compatible with the Mi-V Inter-hart
+  Communication (IHC) IP.

+      This property is required only if the rpmsg/virtio functionality is used.
+      Microchip IPC mailbox specifier. To be used for communication with a

+    description:
+      If defined, when remoteproc is probed, it loads the default firmware and
+      starts the remote processor.
+
+  microchip,skip-ready-wait:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/flag
+    description:
+      If defined, the master processor will not expect a ready signal from the
+      remote processor indicating it has booted successfully. This allows the
+      master processor to proceed with its operations without waiting for
+      confirmation from the remote processor.

+  memory-region:
+    description:
+      If present, a phandle for a reserved memory area that used for vdev buffer,
