Otto Sabart 8217724eb7 doc: bindings: fix bad reference to ARM CPU bindings
The primecell.txt and cpus.txt files were converted into YAML. This
patch updates old references with new ones.

Fixes: d3c207eeb9 ("dt-bindings: arm: Convert primecell binding to json-schema")

Frank Rowand 076fb0c4b6 of: update ePAPR references to point to Devicetree Specification
The Devicetree Specification has superseded the ePAPR as the
base specification for bindings.  Update files in Documentation
to reference the new document.

First reference to ePAPR in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/cci.txt
is generic, remove it.

Some files are not updated because there is no hypervisor chapter
in the Devicetree Specification:
   Documentation/devicetree/bindings/powerpc/fsl/msi-pic.txt
   Documenation/virtual/kvm/api.txt
   Documenation/virtual/kvm/ppc-pv.txt

Mark Brown 33648de0b6 ARM: topology: Make it clear that all CPUs need to be described
The ARMv8 code will reject incomplete topologies that omit some CPUs (and it's
not clear that it's ever sensible to do so). Update the binding document to
make this clear.

Since we're reformatting the text also fix incorrect grammar in the
final "Any other configuration..." section by removing "consider".

Lorenzo Pieralisi deeea72860 Documentation: DT: arm: define CPU topology bindings
The advent of multi-cluster ARM systems requires a mechanism to describe
how in hierarchical terms CPUs are connected in ARM SoCs so that the kernel
can initialize and map resources like IRQs and memory space to specific
group(s) of CPUs.

The CPU topology is made up of multiple hierarchy levels whose bottom
layers (aka leaf nodes in device tree syntax) contain links to the HW
CPUs in the system.

The topology bindings are generic for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems and
lay the groundwork on top of which affinity schemes can be built.

This patch provides the documentation in the kernel required to define the
device tree bindings describing the CPU topology for ARM 32-bit and 64-bit
systems.
