A PRU system event "vring" has been added to each PRU and RTU
node in each of the ICSSG0, ICSSG1 and ICSSG2 remote processor
subsystems to enable the virtio/rpmsg communication between MPU
and that PRU/RTU core. The additions are done in the base
k3-am65-main.dtsi, and so are inherited by all the K3 AM65x
boards.

The PRU system events is the preferred approach over using TI
mailboxes, as it eliminates an external peripheral access from
the PRU/RTU-side, and keeps the interrupt generation internal to
the ICSSG. The difference from MPU would be minimal in using one
versus the other.

Mailboxes can still be used if desired, but currently there is
no support on firmware-side for K3 SoCs to use mailboxes. Either
approach would require that an appropriate firmware image is
loaded/booted on the PRU.
