Add the binding document for the external memory controller (EMC) which
communicates with external LPDDR4 devices. It includes the bindings of
the EMC node and the EMC table of different rates.

To support high rates for LPDDR4, the EMC table must be trained before
it can be used for runtime clock switching. It has been done by firmware
and merged to the table that Linux kernel uses. For backward
compatibility with the devices that had been launched on the market, like
Shield and Jetson platforms, the bindings in the EMC table should remain
the same. So the firmware can recognize them and merge the trained EMC
table for the kernel.

Based on the work of Peter De Schrijver <pdeschrijver@xxxxxxxxxx>.

+NVIDIA Tegra210 SoC EMC (external memory controller)
+====================================================
+
+Required properties :
+- compatible : should be "nvidia,tegra21-emc", "nvidia,tegra210-emc".
+- reg : physical base address and length of the controller's registers.
+- clocks : phandles of the possible source clocks
+- clock-names : names of the possible source clocks
+- #address-cells : should be 1
+- #size-cells : should be 0
+- nvidia,memory-controller : phandle of the memory controller.
+- nvidia,use-ram-code : boolean, indicates whether we should use RAM_CODE in
+		        the register to find matching emc-table nodes
+

The "interrupts" property is missing. You could use the CLK handshake event to wait for the clock rate change completion instead of polling the register if you didn't rely on the downstream binding, see T20 driver for the example. BTW, I'm wondering if you're going to push other downstream bindings to upstream.. apparently EMC won't be the only binding that that could diverge from the upstream and then it's not obvious whether the locked-down variant of T210 is supportable by upstream at all.

Will add "interrupts" property. And yes by default, we don't use that for Tegra210. Because it's in the middle of the scaling sequence for checking the clock source change complete.

Thanks,
Joseph
