Series Add dedicated device tree node for RPM processor/subsystem | expand

Commit Message

Stephan Gerhold June 5, 2023, 7:08 a.m. UTC
The RPM processor/subsystem is the only user of the /smd top-level
node. All other remote processors define their SMD channels/edges
in a "smd-edge" subnode inside the DT node of the remote processor.

Since the RPM has its own dedicated device tree node now as well,
deprecate using the dummy /smd node.
