+* Power State Coordination Interface (PSCI)
+
+Firmware implementing the PSCI functions described in ARM document number
+ARM DEN 0022A ("Power State Coordination Interface System Software on ARM
+processors") can be used by Linux to initiate various CPU-centric power
+operations.
+
+Issue A of the specification describes functions for CPU suspend, hotplug
+and migration of secure software.
+
+Functions are invoked by trapping to the privilege level of the PSCI
+firmware (specified as part of the binding below) and passing arguments
+in a manner similar to that specified by AAPCS:
+
+	 r0		=> 32-bit Function ID / return value
+	{r1 - r3}	=> Parameters
+
+Note that the immediate field of the trapping instruction must be set
+to #0.
+
+
+Main node required properties:
+
+ - compatible    : Must be "arm,psci"
+
+ - method        : The method of calling the PSCI firmware. Permitted
+                   values are:
+
+                   "smc" : SMC #0, with the register assignments specified
+		           in this binding.
+
+                   "hvc" : HVC #0, with the register assignments specified
+		           in this binding.
+
+ - function-base : The base ID from which the functions are offset.
+
+Main node optional properties:
+
+ - cpu_suspend   : Offset of CPU_SUSPEND ID from function-base
+
+ - cpu_off       : Offset of CPU_OFF ID from function-base
+
+ - cpu_on        : Offset of CPU_ON ID from function-base
+
+ - migrate       : Offset of MIGRATE ID from function-base
+
+
+Example:
+
+	psci {
+		compatible	= "arm,psci";
+		method		= "smc";
+		function-base	= <0x95c1ba5e>;
+		cpu_suspend	= <0>;
+		cpu_off		= <1>;
+		cpu_on		= <2>;
+		migrate		= <3>;
+	};
