On Qualcomm platforms, most subsystems (e.g. audio/modem DSP) are
described as remote processors in the device tree, with a dedicated
node where properties and services related to them can be described.
The Resource Power Manager (RPM) is also such a subsystem, with a
remote processor that is running a special firmware. Unfortunately,
the RPM never got a dedicated node representing it properly in the
device tree. Most of the RPM services are described below a top-level
/smd or /rpm-glink node.
However, SMD/GLINK is just one of the communication channels to the RPM
firmware. For example, the MPM interrupt functionality provided by the
RPM does not use SMD/GLINK but writes directly to a special memory
region allocated by the RPM firmware in combination with a mailbox.
Currently there is no good place in the device tree to describe this
functionality. It doesn't belong below SMD/GLINK but it's not an
independent top-level device either.
Introduce a new "qcom,rpm-proc" compatible that allows describing the
RPM as a remote processor/subsystem like all others. The SMD/GLINK node
is moved to a "smd-edge"/"glink-edge" subnode consistent with other
existing bindings. Additional subnodes (e.g. interrupt-controller for
MPM, rpm-master-stats) can be also added there.
Deprecate using the old top-level /smd node since all SMD edges
are now specified as subnodes of the remote processor.

SMD edge contains subnodes representing devices related to the remote
processor. With limietd number of remote processors, there is a limited
set of such devices.
List all of them in smd-edge bindings so schema can strictly check for
subnodes.
Additional benefit is requirement of "qcom,smd-channels" for such
subnodes, because their schema cannot enforce it (few devices like APR
or FastRPC can be part of either SMD or GLINK edge).
