Firmware is a bus? Really? Let's not put hacks in the DT just so you
get automatic probing.

Generally, /firmware defines an interface to firmware. I don't think
clocks belong here. This implies that non-secure world can turn off
clocks to secure world?

So something like:

        firmware {
                compatible = "qcom,scm-apq8084";
                clocks = <&gcc GCC_CE1_CLK> , <&gcc GCC_CE1_AXI_CLK>, <&gcc GCC_CE1_AHB_CLK>;
                clock-names = "core", "bus", "iface";
        };

Seems to work fine.

The caller into the SCM is on the hook for making sure the clocks are turned on.
The firmware people decided to not manage the clocks.  In a perfect world, they
would turn on their own clocks and it would all be self contained.  Sadly, it
isn't going to change.

The alternative is every device that makes scm calls needs to manage the clocks
for the firmware.

Yes, because the top level nodes are probed. But then you can't have any 
other firmware nodes. You are going to have to call of_platform_populate 
on the /firmware node or create the device yourself. If there are other 
users of /firmware needing to probe, then we can perhaps do it 
generically.

Okay. Seems like a security problem to me though.

+QCOM Secure Channel Manager (SCM)
+
+Qualcomm processors include an interface to communicate to the secure firmware.
+This interface allows for clients to request different types of actions.  These
+can include CPU power up/down, HDCP requests, loading of firmware, and other
+assorted actions.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: must contain one of the following:
+ * "qcom,scm-apq8064" for APQ8064
+ * "qcom,scm-apq8084" for MSM8084
+ * "qcom,scm-msm8916" for MSM8916
+ * "qcom,scm-msm8974" for MSM8974
+- clocks: One to three clocks may be required based on compatible.
+ * Only core clock required for "qcom,scm-apq8064"
+ * Core, iface, and bus clocks required for all other compatibles.
+- clock-names: Must contain "core" for the core clock, "iface" for the interface
+  clock and "bus" for the bus clock per the requirements of the compatible.
+
+Example for MSM8916:
+
+	firmware {
+		compatible = "simple-bus";
+
+		scm {
+			compatible = "qcom,scm-msm8916";
+			clocks = <&gcc GCC_CRYPTO_CLK> , <&gcc GCC_CRYPTO_AXI_CLK>, <&gcc GCC_CRYPTO_AHB_CLK>;
+			clock-names = "core", "bus", "iface";
+		};
+	};
