[PATCH 14/16] Documentation: devicetree: Add new binding for PSCIv0.2

From: Ashwin Chaugule <ashwin.chaugule@linaro.org>

The PSCI v0.2+ spec defines standard values for PSCI function IDs.
Add a new binding entry so that pre v0.2 implementations can
use DT entries for function IDs and v0.2+ implementations use
standard entries as defined by the PSCIv0.2 specification.
