Document and describe the compatibles for Apple A7-A11 SoCs.
There are three feature levels:
- apple,aic: No fast IPI, for A7-A10
- apple,t8015-aic: fast IPI, global only, for A11
- apple,t8103-aic: fast IPI with local and global support, for M1
Each feature level is an extension of the previous, for example, M1 will
also work with the A7 feature level.
All of A7-M1 gets its own SoC-specific compatible, and the "apple,aic"
compatible as a fallback.

If you know the process, you can skip it (please do not feel offended by me posting it here - no bad intentions intended). If you do not know the process, here is a short explanation: Please add Acked-by/Reviewed-by/Tested-by tags when posting new versions, under or above your Signed-off-by tag. Tag is "received", when provided in a message replied to you on the mailing list. Tools like b4 can help here. However, there's no need to repost patches *only* to add the tags. The upstream maintainer will do that for tags received on the version they apply. https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.5-rc3/source/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst#L577 </form letter> Best regards, Krzysztof
