Introducing of the common device controller bindings for the controller
provider and consumer devices. Those bindings are intended to allow
divided system on chip into muliple domains, that can be used to
configure hardware permissions.

No change since V1. I'm letting this patch for dependency with bindings to
avoid noise with dt/bindings checks. Therefore, it should be reviewed on the
appropriate thread.

There was a v6 already, this is v3 and I don't understand this comment.
What do you let? Whom? If it is not for review and not for merging,
please annotate it in the title ([IGNORE PATCH] or something).

Best regards,
Krzysztof

+  Common Feature Domains Controller bindings properties
+
+  Domain controllers allow to divided system on chip into multiple feature
+  domains that can be used to select by who hardware blocks could be accessed.
+  A feature domain could be a cluster of CPUs (or coprocessors), a range of
+  addresses or a group of hardware blocks.
+
+  This device tree bindings can be used to bind feature domain consumer devices
+  with their feature domains provided by feature-domains controllers.
+  Feature omain controller provider can be represened 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
+  '#feature-domain-cells' property in the device controller provider node.
+
+  Device controllers are typically used to set the permissions of the hardware
+  block. The contents of the feature-domains configuration properties are
+  defined by the binding for the individual feature-domains controller device.
+
+  Each node can be a consumer for the several providers. The first
+  configuration of 'feature-domains' or the one named 'default' is applied
+  before probing the device itself.
+
+# always select the core schema
+select: true
