This patch adds the generic common bindings used to represent
a hwlock device and use/request locks in a device-tree build.
Each hwspinlock provider should have the '#hwlock-cells' property,
which represents the number of cells to be used for representing
a specific hwspinlock. Client users shall use the property
'hwlocks' for requesting specific lock(s).
Note that the document is named hwlock.txt deliberately to keep
it a bit more generic.
