[PATCH v4 5/5] dt-bindings: arm: add support for SCMI Regulators

[Cristian Marussi]

Add devicetree bindings to support regulators based on SCMI Voltage
Domain Protocol.

Signed-off-by: Cristian Marussi <cristian.marussi@xxxxxxx>
---
v3 --> v4
- added list of supported Regulator bindings.
v2 --> v3
- avoid awkard examples based on _cpu/_gpu regulators
v1 --> v2
- removed any reference to negative voltages

+Regulator bindings for the SCMI Regulator based on SCMI Message Protocol
+------------------------------------------------------------
+An SCMI Regulator is permanently bound to a well defined SCMI Voltage Domain,
+and should be always positioned as a root regulator.
+It does not support any current operation.
+
+SCMI Regulators are grouped under a 'regulators' node which in turn is a child
+of the SCMI Voltage protocol node inside the desired SCMI instance node.
+
+This binding uses the common regulator binding[6] but, due to SCMI abstractions,
+supports only a subset of its properties as specified below amongst Optional
+properties.
+
+Required properties:
+ - reg : shall identify an existent SCMI Voltage Domain.
+
+Optional properties:
+ - regulator-name
+ - regulator-min-microvolt / regulator-max-microvolt
+ - regulator-always-on / regulator-boot-on
+ - regulator-max-step-microvolt
+ - regulator-coupled-with / regulator-coupled-max-spread
+
 Sensor bindings for the sensors based on SCMI Message Protocol
 --------------------------------------------------------------
 SCMI provides an API to access the various sensors on the SoC.
