Will add documents for these.

For better description of hardware, I think putting these properties in all CPUs
share the same supplies is logical.

For each cluster of MT8173, we have both PROC and SRAM supplies. But only
on one cluster (cpu2 and cpu3) we need to control both voltage supplies. The
SRAM supply on cpu0 cluster is controlled by hardware automatically. Therefore
I put sram-supply only on cpu2. For better description of hardware, it
might be a
good idea to put the SRAM supply in cpu0 also though we don't use it in the
driver, right?

Yes, I agree with you and same above. I did these because most of the
platforms in kernel did these. So should I do it the way you suggest?

Thanks.
