Documentation: dt: Add binding for /secure-chosen/stdout-path
Some platforms may use a single device tree to describe two address spaces, as described in d9f43babb998 ("Documentation: dt: Add bindings for Secure-only devices"). For these platforms it makes sense to define a secure counterpart of /chosen, namely: /secure-chosen. This new node is meant to be used by the secure firmware to pass data to the secure OS. Only the stdout-path property is supported for now. Signed-off-by: Jerome Forissier <jerome.forissier@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
