Other than the yaml format that you've already taken care of, I have the
following comments:

Please describe "split" and "lock-step". I am guessing that split means
core run independently from one another while lock-step is an smp configuration.
But event that is not clear from the implementation in patch 5. I also assume
the property has no relevance when there is only one core.

I can't find the interrupts and interrupts-parent properties under the
zynqmp-r5-remoteproc node. But I do see them under the zynqmp_ipi node. As
such there is a discrepancy between the above and the example.

This section is already laid out above, but this (other) one
has mboxes and mbox-names. Please reorganise.
