+======================================================================
+Device tree bindings for the Aspeed Low Pin Count (LPC) Bus Controller
+======================================================================
+
+The LPC bus is a means to bridge a host CPU to a number of low-bandwidth
+peripheral devices, replacing the use of the ISA bus in the age of PCI[0]. The
+primary use case of the Aspeed LPC controller is as a slave on the bus
+(typically in a Baseboard Management Controller SoC), but under certain
+conditions it can also take the role of bus master.
+
+The LPC controller is represented as a multi-function device to account for the
+mix of functionality it provides. The principle split is between the register
+layout at the start of the I/O space which is, to quote the Aspeed datasheet,
+"basically compatible with the [LPC registers from the] popular BMC controller
+H8S/2168[1]", and everything else, where everything else is an eclectic
+collection of functions with a esoteric register layout. "Everything else",
+here labeled the "host" portion of the controller, includes, but is not limited
+to:
+
+* An IPMI Block Transfer[2] Controller
+
+* An LPC Host Controller: Manages LPC functions such as host vs slave mode, the
+  physical properties of some LPC pins, configuration of serial IRQs, and
+  APB-to-LPC bridging amonst other functions.
+
+* An LPC Host Interface Controller: Manages functions exposed to the host such
+  as LPC firmware hub cycles, configuration of the LPC-to-AHB mapping, UART
+  management and bus snoop configuration.
+
+* A set of SuperIO[3] scratch registers: Enables implementation of e.g. custom
+  hardware management protocols for handover between the host and baseboard
+  management controller.
+
+Additionally the state of the LPC controller influences the pinmux
+configuration, therefore the host portion of the controller is exposed as a
+syscon as a means to arbitrate access.
