Subject: [PATCH v8 2/3] Documentation: devicetree: Add new binding for PSCIv0.2
Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2014 15:48:48 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1398455329-18136-3-git-send-email-ashwin.chaugule@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1398455329-18136-1-git-send-email-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.
