I dropped the more example-like DT changes from v1, as they are actually
not meant to be merged into the Linux tree, but instead are provided as
part of some firmware actually implementing this functionality.

Please let me know what you think.

Could you please quickly explain what it would take to provide SCMI on top of this instead of SCPI?

I can certainly see that SCPI is an easier target because it's already upstream and widely spread. But wouldn't it make sense to jump on the SCMI train while it's taking steam?


Thanks,

Alex
