+Maximum Power Mitigation Mechanism (MPMM) Bindings
+==================================================
+
+|MPMM| support cannot be determined at runtime by the firmware. Instead, these
+DTB bindings allow the platform to communicate per-core support for |MPMM| via
+the ``HW_CONFIG`` device tree blob.
+
+Bindings

+
+``/cpus/cpus/cpu*`` node properties
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+The ``cpu`` node has been augmented to allow the platform to indicate support
+for |MPMM| on a given core.

+| ``supports-mpmm`` | O     | ``<empty>`` | If present, indicates that |MPMM|  |
+|                   |       |             | is available on this core.         |

+Example
+^^^^^^^
+
+An example system offering two cores, one with support for |MPMM| and one
+without, can be described as follows:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+    cpus {
+        #address-cells = <2>;
+        #size-cells = <0>;
+
+        cpu0@00000 {
+            ...
+
+            supports-mpmm;
+        };
+
+        cpu1@00100 {
+            ...
+        };
+    }
