[PATCH v7 1/7] dt-bindings: opp: Introduce opp-peak-kBps and opp-avg-kBps bindings
From: Georgi Djakov
Date: Fri Apr 24 2020 - 11:54:45 EST
From: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@xxxxxxxxxx>
Interconnects often quantify their performance points in terms of
bandwidth. So, add opp-peak-kBps (required) and opp-avg-kBps (optional) to
allow specifying Bandwidth OPP tables in DT.
opp-peak-kBps is a required property that replaces opp-hz for Bandwidth OPP
tables.
opp-avg-kBps is an optional property that can be used in Bandwidth OPP
tables.

v7:
* I have dropped Rob's Reviewed-by, because of the minor change below:
* In order to store the bandwidth values for multiple paths, the
opp-peak-kBps and opp-avg-kBps are now defined as arrays of integers,
instead of just integers.
* Improved wording (Viresh)
