It would be nice to document "psci" here as valid for 32-bit.

Currently the PSCI code doesn't inspect the enable-method and assumes it
if there's a psci node, but KVM tool and others set enable-method to
"psci", and if we change the way the PSCI code probes it will require
enable-method to be set for PSCI to work.

If this is going to get much longer, we should probably have
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/boot/ or similar, but that can be
done later.

Otherwise, this looks fine to me.
