The broadcom settop SoCs have hardware semaphores as part of "sundry"
IP block which has other controls that do not belong anywhere else.
e.g. pin/mux controls, SoC identification, drive strength, reset controls,
and other misc bits are part of this block.

Adding brcmstb-hwspinlock bindings which allows the hwspinlock driver to
iomap only the 16 hardware semaphore registers that are part of all settop
SoCs. Hence the bindings shall use the common "brcm,brcmstb-hwspinlock"
compatibility string.
