The SAW2 is a wrapper around the Subsystem Power Manager (SPM) and the
Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) hardware. The SPM is a programmable
-micro-controller that transitions a piece of hardware (like a processor or
+power-controller that transitions a piece of hardware (like a processor or
subsystem) into and out of low power modes via a direct connection to
the PMIC. It can also be wired up to interact with other processors in the
system, notifying them when a low power state is entered or exited.
+Multiple revisions of the SAW hardware are supported using these Device Nodes.
+SAW2 revisions differ in the register offset and configuration data. Also, the
+same revision of the SAW in different SoCs may have different configuration
+data due the the differences in hardware capabilities. Hence the SoC name, the
+version of the SAW hardware in that SoC and the distinction between cpu (big
+or Little) or cache, may be needed to uniquely identify the SAW register
+configuration and initialization data. The compatible string is used to
+indicate this parameter.
