ARM System Control and Power Interface(SCPI) support

It adds support for the following features provided by SCP firmware
 using different subsystems in Linux:
   1. SCPI mailbox protocol driver which using mailbox framework
   2. Clocks provided by SCP using clock framework
   3. CPU DVFS(cpufreq) using existing arm-big-little driver
   4. SCPI based sensors including temperature sensors

Kernel driver scpi-hwmon
========================
Supported chips:
* Chips based on ARM System Control Processor Interface
Addresses scanned: -
Datasheet: http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0922b/index.html
Author: Punit Agrawal <[email protected]>
Description
-----------
This driver supports hardware monitoring for SoC's based on the ARM
System Control Processor (SCP) implementing the System Control
Processor Interface (SCPI). The following sensor types are supported
by the SCP -
* temperature
* voltage
* current
* power
The SCP interface provides an API to query the available sensors and
their values which are then exported to userspace by this driver.
Usage Notes
-----------
The driver relies on device tree node to indicate the presence of SCPI
support in the kernel. See
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/arm,scpi.txt for details of the
devicetree node.
