A PSCI node in the DT defines a standard interface to a firmware which
is external to Linux. The PSCI binding does not contain the word
"driver", but describes the interface that the binding describes, with
reference to approriate documentation.

All I'm arguing for here is a description of the class of hardware this
is applicable to, rather than "this is what this particular driver
uses".

Thanks,
