Changes since v7:
- Corrected address, compatible and naming of the tcsr block

Changes since v6:
- Corrected indentation error in example

Changes since v5:
- Extracted the dt binding documentation into a separate patch
- Moved the driver to consume a syscon
- Dropped previously suggested generic hwlock dt bindings

+Qualcomm Hardware Mutex Block:
+
+The hardware block provides mutexes utilized between different processors on
+the SoC as part of the communication protocol used by these processors.
+
+- compatible:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: must be one of:
+ "qcom,sfpb-mutex",
+ "qcom,tcsr-mutex"
+
+- syscon:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: one cell containing:
+ syscon phandle
+ offset of the hwmutex block within the syscon
+ stride of the hwmutex registers
+
+- #hwlock-cells:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: must be 1, the specified cell represent the lock id
+ (hwlock standard property, see hwlock.txt)
+
+Example:
+
+ tcsr_mutex_block: syscon@fd484000 {
+ compatible = "syscon";
+ reg = <0xfd484000 0x2000>;
+ };
+
+ hwlock@fd484000 {
+ compatible = "qcom,tcsr-mutex";
+ syscon = <&tcsr_mutex_block 0 0x80>;
+
+ #hwlock-cells = <1>;
+ };
