Please drop all redundant descriptions. Adding them is not even related
to this patch.

How is this related to fw-managed? I fail to see it. Don't mix
independent problems in one patch.

Please do not upstream vendor code directly, but perform basic
adjustment to upstream Linux kernel. There is no such company as gmp.

Run this first through your internal review process.

You miss clear mapping between compatibles and this property - allOf
restricting it to specific SoCs.

Is this different property than qcom,controlled-remotely?
