dt-bindings: arm: xen: Convert to DT schema
Convert the Xen ARM device tree binding documentation from the legacy plain-text format (Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/xen.txt) to the DT schema format, as required by the modern DT binding process. The "hypervisor" node is named without a unit-address. The name is part of the Xen ABI and is matched verbatim by the kernel using strcmp() in arch/arm/xen/enlighten.c and arch/arm64/kernel/acpi.c. Allow a unit-address so this can be addressed and the dtc warnings can be avoided in the example.

-* Xen hypervisor device tree bindings
-
-Xen ARM virtual platforms shall have a top-level "hypervisor" node with
-the following properties:
-
-- compatible:
- compatible = "xen,xen-<version>", "xen,xen";
- where <version> is the version of the Xen ABI of the platform.
-
-- reg: specifies the base physical address and size of the regions in memory
- where the special resources should be mapped to, using an HYPERVISOR_memory_op
- hypercall.
- Region 0 is reserved for mapping grant table, it must be always present.
- The memory region is large enough to map the whole grant table (it is larger
- or equal to gnttab_max_grant_frames()).
- Regions 1...N are extended regions (unused address space) for mapping foreign
- GFNs and grants, they might be absent if there is nothing to expose.
-
-- interrupts: the interrupt used by Xen to inject event notifications.
- A GIC node is also required.
-
-To support UEFI on Xen ARM virtual platforms, Xen populates the FDT "uefi" node
-under /hypervisor with following parameters:
-
-________________________________________________________________________________
-Name | Size | Description
-================================================================================
-xen,uefi-system-table | 64-bit | Guest physical address of the UEFI System
- | | Table.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-xen,uefi-mmap-start | 64-bit | Guest physical address of the UEFI memory
- | | map.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-xen,uefi-mmap-size | 32-bit | Size in bytes of the UEFI memory map
- | | pointed to in previous entry.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-xen,uefi-mmap-desc-size | 32-bit | Size in bytes of each entry in the UEFI
- | | memory map.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-xen,uefi-mmap-desc-ver | 32-bit | Version of the mmap descriptor format.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Example (assuming #address-cells = <2> and #size-cells = <2>):
-
-hypervisor {
- compatible = "xen,xen-4.3", "xen,xen";
- reg = <0 0xb0000000 0 0x20000>;
- interrupts = <1 15 0xf08>;
- uefi {
- xen,uefi-system-table = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
- xen,uefi-mmap-start = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
- xen,uefi-mmap-size = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
- xen,uefi-mmap-desc-size = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
- xen,uefi-mmap-desc-ver = <0xXXXXXXXX>;
- };
-};
-
-The format and meaning of the "xen,uefi-*" parameters are similar to those in
-Documentation/arch/arm/uefi.rst, which are provided by the regular UEFI stub. However
-they differ because they are provided by the Xen hypervisor, together with a set
-of UEFI runtime services implemented via hypercalls, see
-http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/hypercall/x86_64/include,public,platform.h.html.
