The HwSpinlock core requires a base id for registering a bank
of hwspinlocks. This base id needs to be unique across multiple
IP instances of a hwspinlock device, so that each hwlock can be
represented uniquely in a system.
Support has been added to represent this in DT through a common
property 'hwlock-base-id', and retrieve the value through a core
OF helper function, of_hwspin_lock_get_base_id(). The representation
in DT provides a uniform way of assigning a fixed base value for a
hwspinlock device across different SoCs.
