[RFC 03/10] of: Add NVIDIA Tegra124 memory controller binding

From: Thierry Reding <treding at nvidia.com>

The memory controller on NVIDIA Tegra124 exposes various knobs that can
be used to tune the behaviour of the clients attached to it.

In addition, the memory controller implements an SMMU (IOMMU) which can
translate I/O virtual addresses to physical addresses for clients. This
is useful for scatter-gather operation on devices that don't support it
natively and for virtualization or process separation.

+NVIDIA Tegra124 Memory Controller device tree bindings
+======================================================
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "nvidia,tegra124-mc"
+- reg: Physical base address and length of the controller's registers.
+- interrupts: The interrupt outputs from the controller.
+- #iommu-cells: Should be 1. The single cell of the IOMMU specifier defines
+  the SWGROUP of the master.
+
+This device implements an IOMMU that complies with the generic IOMMU binding.
+See ../iommu/iommu.txt for details.
