Thanks Michal for reviews. I will split the patch in three different 
patches.

Yes the IPI configuration register addresses are retrieved from TF-A in 
zynqmp-ipi-driver using xlnx,ipi-id property.

Other than that there are message buffers provided in hardware for IPI 
communication. We list those message buffer addresses

using reg addresses and they are expected in dts. As per bindings we do 
not map message buffers to IPI ID.

I am not sure which register listing you are referring to ?
