+* ARM Performance Monitor Units
+
+ARM cores often have a PMU for counting cpu and cache events like cache misses
+and hits. The interface to the PMU is part of the ARM ARM. The ARM PMU
+representation in the device tree should be done as under:-
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be one of
+ "arm,cortex-a9-pmu"
+ "arm,cortex-a8-pmu"
+ "arm,arm1176-pmu"
+ "arm,arm1136-pmu"
+- interrupts : 1 combined interrupt or 1 per core.
+
+Example:
+
+pmu {
+ compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-pmu";
+ interrupts = <100 101>;
+};

+* ARM Primecell Peripherals
+
+ARM, Ltd. Primecell peripherals have a standard id register that can be used to
+identify the peripheral type, vendor, and revision. This value can be used for
+driver matching.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be a specific value for peripheral and "arm,primecell"
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- arm,primecell-periphid : Value to override the h/w value with

+Example:
+
+serial@fff36000 {
+ compatible = "arm,pl011", "arm,primecell";
+ arm,primecell-periphid = <0x00341011>;
+};
