Good to see some work on this, I want it too :)
I do however think this is Qualcomm specific in its implementation, so
adding Andy and linux-arm-msm.

This address refers to IMEM, which is shared with a number of other
uses. So I think we should have a simple-mfd (and syscon) with this
within.
I like the fact that you don't hard code the magics in the
implementation, as I've seen additions from multiple places - so perhaps
it should be made even more flexible.
OMAP seems to use strings here instead of magics, but the delivery
mechanism looks to be the same. But I think of this as Qualcomm
specific.

In the case where we didn't find a match you should write the "normal"
reason here, otherwise I think you will end up in recovery when recovery
issues a reboot (in Android that is).

Please acquire this memory from a syscon (preferably the the parent
simple-mfd).

I would like for this to be less hard coded.
