From: Oleksii Moisieiev <Oleksii_Moisieiev@epam.com>

Introducing of the generic access controllers bindings for the
access controller provider and consumer devices. Those bindings are
intended to allow a better handling of accesses to resources in a
hardware architecture supporting several compartments.

This patch is based on [1]. It is integrated in this patchset as it
provides a use-case for it.

Diffs with [1]:
	- Rename feature-domain* properties to access-control* to narrow
	  down the scope of the binding
	- YAML errors and typos corrected.
	- Example updated
	- Some rephrasing in the binding description

Changes in V6:
	- Renamed access-controller to access-controllers
	- Example updated
	- Removal of access-control-provider property

Changes in V5:
	- Diffs with [1]
	- Discarded the [IGNORE] tag as the patch is now part of the
	  patchset

+description: |+
+  Common access controllers properties
+
+  Access controllers are in charge of stating which of the hardware blocks under
+  their responsibility (their domain) can be accesssed by which compartment. A
+  compartment can be a cluster of CPUs (or coprocessors), a range of addresses
+  or a group of hardware blocks. An access controller's domain is the set of
+  resources covered by the access controller.
+
+  This device tree binding can be used to bind devices to their access
+  controller provided by access-controllers property. In this case, the device
+  is a consumer and the access controller is the provider.
+
+  An access controller can be represented by any node in the device tree and
+  can provide one or more configuration parameters, needed to control parameters
+  of the consumer device. A consumer node can refer to the provider by phandle
+  and a set of phandle arguments, specified by '#access-controller-cells'
+  property in the access controller node.
+
+  Access controllers are typically used to set/read the permissions of a
+  hardware block and grant access to it. Any of which depends on the access
+  controller. The capabilities of each access controller are defined by the
+  binding of the access controller device.
+
+  Each node can be a consumer for the several access controllers.
+
+# always select the core schema
+select: true
+
+properties:
+  "#access-controller-cells":
+    description:
+      Number of cells in an access-controllers specifier;
+      Can be any value as specified by device tree binding documentation
+      of a particular provider. The node is an access controller.
+
+  access-controller-names:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string-array
+    description:
+      A list of access-controllers names, sorted in the same order as
+      access-controllers entries. Consumer drivers will use
+      access-controller-names to match with existing access-controllers entries.
+
+  access-controllers:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle-array
+    description:
+      A list of access controller specifiers, as defined by the
+      bindings of the access-controllers provider.
