[PATCH] dt-bindings: arm: apple: Add M3 (t8112 and t603x) devices

[Janne Grunau]

The Apple M3 based devices follow the pattern of their M1 and M2
predecessors. One notable difference is that the M3 Max SoC has two
variants: t6031 and t6034.
t6034 has 14 CPU cores, 30 GPU cores and a combined 384-bit LPPDR5
memory bus while t6031 comes with 16 CPU cores, 40 GPU cores and a
512-bit wide LPPDR5 interface. These are the only apparent
differences between those two SoCs.

There is no user of this in this patchset and your commit msg or
changelog must explain that. We don't take bindings without users.

I have a series adding M3 device trees for these devices. I
misremembered your feedback from the M2 Pro/Max/Utra submission and was
planning to send dt-binding updates and the device trees using them
separately.
I'll send them as single series instead.
