+Generic hwlock bindings
+=======================
+
+Generic bindings that are common to all the hwlock platform specific driver
+implementations.
+
+Please also look through the individual platform specific hwlock binding
+documentations for identifying any additional properties specific to that
+platform.
+
+hwlock providers:
+=================
+
+Required properties:
+- #hwlock-cells: Specifies the number of cells needed to represent a
+ specific lock.
+
+hwlock users:
+=============
+
+Consumers that require specific hwlock(s) should specify them using the
+property "hwlocks", and an optional "hwlock-names" property.
+
+Required properties:
+- hwlocks: List of phandle to a hwlock provider node and an
+ associated hwlock args specifier as indicated by
+ #hwlock-cells. The list can have just a single hwlock
+ or multiple hwlocks, with each hwlock represented by
+ a phandle and a corresponding args specifier.
+
+Optional properties:
+- hwlock-names: List of hwlock name strings defined in the same order
+ as the hwlocks, with one name per hwlock. Consumers can
+ use the hwlock-names to match and get a specific hwlock.
+
+
+1. Example of a node using a single specific hwlock:
+
+The following example has a node requesting a hwlock in the bank defined by
+the node hwlock1. hwlock1 is a hwlock provider with an argument specifier
+of length 1.
+
+ node {
+ ...
+ hwlocks = <&hwlock1 2>;
+ ...
+ };
+
+2. Example of a node using multiple specific hwlocks:
+
+The following example has a node requesting two hwlocks, a hwlock within
+the hwlock device node 'hwlock1' with #hwlock-cells value of 1, and another
+hwlock within the hwlock device node 'hwlock2' with #hwlock-cells value of 2.
+
+ node {
+ ...
+ hwlocks = <&hwlock1 2>, <&hwlock2 0 3>;
+ ...
+ };

+OMAP4+ HwSpinlock Driver
+========================
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "ti,omap4-hwspinlock" for
+ OMAP44xx, OMAP54xx, AM33xx, AM43xx, DRA7xx SoCs
+- reg: Contains the hwspinlock module register address space
+ (base address and length)
+- ti,hwmods: Name of the hwmod associated with the hwspinlock device
+- #hwlock-cells: Should be 1. The OMAP hwspinlock users will use a
+ 0-indexed relative hwlock number as the argument
+ specifier value for requesting a specific hwspinlock
+ within a hwspinlock bank.
+
+Please look at the generic hwlock binding for usage information for consumers,
+"Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwlock/hwlock.txt"
+
+Example:
+
+/* OMAP4 */
+hwspinlock: spinlock@4a0f6000 {
+ compatible = "ti,omap4-hwspinlock";
+ reg = <0x4a0f6000 0x1000>;
+ ti,hwmods = "spinlock";
+ #hwlock-cells = <1>;
+};

+Qualcomm Hardware Mutex Block:
+
+The hardware block provides mutexes utilized between different processors on
+the SoC as part of the communication protocol used by these processors.
+
+- compatible:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: must be one of:
+ "qcom,sfpb-mutex",
+ "qcom,tcsr-mutex"
+
+- syscon:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: one cell containing:
+ syscon phandle
+ offset of the hwmutex block within the syscon
+ stride of the hwmutex registers
+
+- #hwlock-cells:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: must be 1, the specified cell represent the lock id
+ (hwlock standard property, see hwlock.txt)
+
+Example:
+
+ tcsr_mutex_block: syscon@fd484000 {
+ compatible = "syscon";
+ reg = <0xfd484000 0x2000>;
+ };

+SIRF Hardware spinlock device Binding
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Required properties :
+- compatible : shall contain only one of the following:
+ "sirf,hwspinlock"
+
+- reg : the register address of hwspinlock
+
+- #hwlock-cells : hwlock users only use the hwlock id to represent a specific
+ hwlock, so the number of cells should be <1> here.
+
+Please look at the generic hwlock binding for usage information for consumers,
+"Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwlock/hwlock.txt"

+Example of hwlock provider:
+ hwlock {
+ compatible = "sirf,hwspinlock";
+ reg = <0x13240000 0x00010000>;
+ #hwlock-cells = <1>;
+ };
+
+Example of hwlock users:
