Changes in v7:
- fix some spelling mistakes
- declare that the mode magic should be none-zero value

Changes in v6:
- fix a typo with "property"
- describe property "mask" more clear

Changes in v5:
- delete a unnecessary blank line in syscon-reboot-mode.txt
- rename mode-fastoboot to mode-bootloader in syscon-reboot-mode.txt
- rename macro BOOT_LOADER to BOOT_BL_DOWNLOAD, which gives a more clear mean

Changes in v4:
- remove mode-maskrom
- rename mode-fastboot to mode-bootloader to keep compatible with the exiting Android device

Changes in v3:
- descirbe all reboot mode as properity instead of subnode

Changes in v2: None
Changes in v1: None

+Generic reboot mode core map driver
+
+This driver get reboot mode arguments and call the write
+interface to store the magic value in special register
+or ram. Then the bootloader can read it and take different
+action according to the argument stored.
+
+All mode properties are vendor specific, it is a indication to tell
+the bootloader what to do when the system reboots, and should be named
+as mode-xxx = <magic> (xxx is mode name, magic should be a none-zero value).
+
+For example modes common on Android platform:
+- mode-normal: Normal reboot mode, system reboot with command "reboot".
+- mode-recovery: Android Recovery mode, it is a mode to format the device or update a new image.
+- mode-bootloader: Android fastboot mode, it's a mode to re-flash partitions on the Android based device.
+- mode-loader: A bootloader mode, it's a mode used to download image on Rockchip platform,
+	       usually used in development.
+
+Example:
+	reboot-mode {
+		mode-normal = <BOOT_NORMAL>;
+		mode-recovery = <BOOT_RECOVERY>;
+		mode-bootloader = <BOOT_FASTBOOT>;
+		mode-loader = <BOOT_BL_DOWNLOAD>;
+	}

+SYSCON reboot mode driver
+
+This driver gets reboot mode magic value form reboot-mode driver
+and stores it in a SYSCON mapped register. Then the bootloader
+can read it and take different action according to the magic
+value stored.
+
+This DT node should be represented as a sub-node of a "syscon", "simple-mfd"
+node.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be "syscon-reboot-mode"
+- offset: offset in the register map for the storage register (in bytes)
+
+Optional property:
+- mask: bits mask of the bits in the register to store the reboot mode magic value,
+  default set to 0xffffffff if missing.
+
+The rest of the properties should follow the generic reboot-mode description
+found in reboot-mode.txt
+
+Example:
+	pmu: pmu at 20004000 {
+		compatible = "rockchip,rk3066-pmu", "syscon", "simple-mfd";
+		reg = <0x20004000 0x100>;
+
+		reboot-mode {
+			compatible = "syscon-reboot-mode";
+			offset = <0x40>;
+			mode-normal = <BOOT_NORMAL>;
+			mode-recovery = <BOOT_RECOVERY>;
+			mode-bootloader = <BOOT_FASTBOOT>;
+			mode-loader = <BOOT_BL_DOWNLOAD>;
+		};
+	};
