[PATCH 1/3 v6] dt/bindings: Add binding for the BCM2835 mailbox driver

From: Eric Anholt
Date: Tue May 05 2015 - 16:28:27 EST


From: Lubomir Rintel <lkundrak@xxxxx>

This patch was split out of Lubomir's original mailbox patch by Eric
Anholt, and the required properties documentation and examples have
been filled out more completely and updated for the driver being
changed to expose a single channel.

v2: Split into a separate patch for submitting to the devicetree list.
Consistently start node docs with a capital letter. device's
address in the example shouldn't have "0x". Drop machine-specific
interrupt numbers from the docs. (changes by anholt).

v3: Move the file to just bcm2835-mbox.txt, clean up formatting
(changes by anholt, from review by Lee Jones).

v4: Move file back by consensus from various Broadcom platform
maintainers (changes by anholt, acked by Lee Jones).

v5: Document that the mailbox cell should be 0 in clients, and add an
example of a client.

v6: Add change description to commit message separate from this
version section. Update for #mbox-cells 0 change.

+- interrupts: The interrupt number
