i.MX95 System Manager Firmware support vendor extension protocol:
- Battery Backed Module(BBM) Protocol
This protocol is intended provide access to the battery-backed module.
This contains persistent storage (GPR), an RTC, and the ON/OFF button.
The protocol can also provide access to similar functions implemented via
external board components. The BBM protocol provides functions to:

- Describe the protocol version.
- Discover implementation attributes.
- Read/write GPR
- Discover the RTCs available in the system.
- Read/write the RTC time in seconds and ticks
- Set an alarm (per LM) in seconds
- Get notifications on RTC update, alarm, or rollover.
- Get notification on ON/OFF button activity.

- MISC Protocol for misc settings
This includes controls that are misc settings/actions that must be exposed
from the SM to agents. They are device specific and are usually define to
access bit fields in various mix block control modules, IOMUX_GPR, and other
GPR/CSR owned by the SM.
This protocol supports the following functions:

- Describe the protocol version.
- Discover implementation attributes.
- Set/Get a control.
- Initiate an action on a control.
- Obtain platform (i.e. SM) build information.
- Obtain ROM passover data.
- Read boot/shutdown/reset information for the LM or the system.

This patchset is to support the two protocols and users that use the
protocols. The upper protocol infomation is also included in patch 1

Changes in v3:
- Update cover letter and patch commit log to include more information.
- Add documentation for BBM and MISC protocols under
Documentation/firmware-guide/nxp. Not sure if this is a good place.
- Fix the bindings, hope I have addressed the issues.
Drop imx,scmi.yaml.
Add nxp,imx95-scmi.yaml for NXP vendor protocol properties.
Add constraints, add nxp prefix for NXP vendor properties.
Use anyOf in arm,scmi.yaml to ref vendor yaml.
- Use cpu_to_le32 per Cristian
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240405-imx95-bbm-misc-v2-v2-0-9fc9186856c2@xxxxxxx

Changes in v2:
- Sorry for late update since v1.
- Add a new patch 1
- Address imx,scmi.yaml issues
- Address comments for imx-sm-bbm.c and imx-sm-misc.c
- I not add vendor id since related patches not landed in linux-next.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240202-imx95-bbm-misc-v1-0-3cb743020933@xxxxxxx
