+Broadcom AVS CPUfreq driver
+===========================
+
+This driver provides voltage and frequency scaling on Broadcom SoCs using
+the AVS firmware with DVFS support. The AVS firmware is running on its own
+co-processor. The driver supports both uniprocessor (UP) and symmetric
+multiprocessor (SMP) systems which share clock and voltage across all CPUs.
+
+Actual voltage and frequency scaling is done solely by the AVS firmware.
+This driver does not change frequency or voltage itself. It provides a
+standard CPUfreq interface to the rest of the kernel and to userland. It
+interfaces with the AVS firmware to effect the requested changes and to
+report back the current system status in a way that is expected by existing
+tools.
+
+This driver requires two DT nodes. One node (brcm,avs-cpu-data-mem)
+references the mailbox register used to communicate with the AVS CPU. 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 this driver. Interrupting the AVS CPU is mandatory for
+commands to be processed.
+
+It also requires a reference to the AVS host interrrupt controller, so the
+driver can react to interrupts generated by the AVS CPU whenever a command
+has been processed. See [1] for more information on the brcm,l2-intc.

+
+Node brcm,avs-cpu-data-mem
+--------------------------
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Sould be one of: brcm,avs-cpu-data-mem,
+              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-parent: The interrupt controller the above interrupt is routed
+                    through.
+- interrupt-names: The name of the interrupt used to interrupt the host.
+
+Optional properties:
+- None
+
+Node brcm,avs-cpu-l2-intr
+-------------------------
+
+Required properties:

+              brcm,bcm7271-avs-cpu-l2-intr or brcm,bcm7268-avs-cpu-l2-intr
+- reg: Specifies base physical address and size of the registers.
+
+Optional properties:
+- None
