+Broadcom AVS mail box and interrupt register bindings
+=====================================================
+
+A total of three DT nodes are required. One node (brcm,avs-cpu-data-mem)
+references the mailbox register used to communicate with the AVS CPU[1]. The
+second node (brcm,avs-cpu-l2-intr) is required to trigger an interrupt on
+the AVS CPU. The interrupt tells the AVS CPU that it needs to process a
+command sent to it by a driver. Interrupting the AVS CPU is mandatory for
+commands to be processed.
+
+The interface also requires a reference to the AVS host interrupt controller,
+so a driver can react to interrupts generated by the AVS CPU whenever a command
+has been processed. See [2] for more information on the brcm,l2-intc node.
+
+[1] The AVS CPU is an independent co-processor that runs proprietary
+firmware. On some SoCs, this firmware supports DFS and DVFS in addition to
+Adaptive Voltage Scaling.

+Node brcm,avs-cpu-data-mem
+--------------------------
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: must include: brcm,avs-cpu-data-mem and
+ should include: one of brcm,bcm7271-avs-cpu-data-mem or
+ brcm,bcm7268-avs-cpu-data-mem
+- reg: Specifies base physical address and size of the registers.
+- interrupts: The interrupt that the AVS CPU will use to interrupt the host
+ when a command completed.
+- interrupt-names: The name of the interrupt used to interrupt the host.
+
+Optional properties:
+- None
+

+ brcm,bcm7268-avs-cpu-l2-intr
+- reg: Specifies base physical address and size of the registers.
+
+Optional properties:
