dt-bindings: remoteproc: Add Qualcomm RPM processor/subsystem
On Qualcomm platforms, most subsystems (e.g. audio/modem DSP) are described as remote processors in the device tree, with a dedicated node where properties and services related to them can be described. The Resource Power Manager (RPM) is also such a subsystem, with a remote processor that is running a special firmware. Unfortunately, the RPM never got a dedicated node representing it properly in the device tree. Most of the RPM services are described below a top-level /smd or /rpm-glink node. However, SMD/GLINK is just one of the communication channels to the RPM firmware. For example, the MPM interrupt functionality provided by the RPM does not use SMD/GLINK but writes directly to a special memory region allocated by the RPM firmware in combination with a mailbox. Currently there is no good place in the device tree to describe this functionality. It doesn't belong below SMD/GLINK but it's not an independent top-level device either. Introduce a new "qcom,rpm-proc" compatible that allows describing the RPM as a remote processor/subsystem like all others. The SMD/GLINK node is moved to a "smd-edge"/"glink-edge" subnode consistent with other existing bindings. Additional subnodes (e.g. interrupt-controller for MPM, rpm-master-stats) can be also added there. Deprecate using the old top-level /smd node since all SMD edges are now specified as subnodes of the remote processor.
