Add binding for the Arm SMMUv3 PMU. Each node represents a PMCG, and is
placed as a sibling node of the SMMU. Although the PMCGs registers may
be within the SMMU MMIO region, they are separate devices, and there can
be multiple PMCG devices for each SMMU (for example one for the TCU and
one for each TBU).

Don't need '|+' if no formatting to preserve.

+  An SMMUv3 may have several Performance Monitor Counter Group (PMCG).
+  They are standalone performance monitoring units that support both
+  architected and IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED event counters.

Humm, I don't know that I agree they are standalone. They could be I
guess, but looking at the MMU-600 spec the PMCG looks like it's just a
subset of registers in a larger block. This seems similar to MPAM
(which I'm working on a binding for) where it's just a register map
and interrupts, but every other possible resource is unspecified by
the architecture.

They're "standalone" in the sense that they don't have to be part of an SMMU, they could be part of a PCIe root complex or other SoC device that couples to an SMMU (e.g. anything that can speak AMBA DTI, in the case of our SMMU implementations).

In fact our SMMU TBUs are pretty much separate devices themselves, they just *only* speak DTI, so access to their registers is proxied through the TCU programming interface.

The simplest change from this would be just specifying that the PMCG
is child node(s) of whatever it is part of. The extreme would be this
is all part of the SMMU binding (i.e. reg entry X is PMCG registers,
interrupts entry Y is pmu irq).

Being a child of its associated device doesn't seem too bad semantically, however how would we describe a PMCG as a child of a PCIe node when its "reg" property still exists in the parent address space and not PCI config/memory space like any of its siblings? Also in practical terms, consuming that binding in Linux and getting the things to probe when it may want to be independent of whether we even understand the parent node at all could be... unpleasant.
