The Qualcomm SoC Power and Electrical Limits (SPEL) provides hardware
based power monitoring and limiting capabilities for various domains.

Add a DeviceTree binding to describe the SPEL block on Qualcomm's SoC.

My bot found errors running 'make dt_binding_check' on your patch:

yamllint warnings/errors:

dtschema/dtc warnings/errors:
/builds/robherring/dt-review-ci/linux/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/limits/qcom,spel.example.dtb: power-controller@ef3b000 (qcom,spel): '#power-domain-cells' is a required property
from schema $id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/power/power-domain.yaml

doc reference errors (make refcheckdocs):

Ack, Will move node name to power-limits instead of power-controller

Thanks,

See https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/devicetree/patch/20260519-qcom_spel_driver_upstream-v1-1-75356d1b7f94@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.
