+ * Here's a high level overview of how all the registers in RPMH work
+ * together:
+ *
+ * - The main rpmh-rsc address is the base of a register space that can
+ *   be used to find overall configuration of the hardware
+ *   (DRV_PRNT_CHLD_CONFIG). Also found within the rpmh-rsc register
+ *   space are all the TCS blocks. The offset of the TCS blocks is
+ *   specified in the device tree by "qcom,tcs-offset" and used to
+ *   compute tcs_base.
+ * - TCS blocks come one after another. Type, count, and order are
+ *   specified by the device tree as "qcom,tcs-config".
+ * - Each TCS block has some registers, then space for up to 16 commands.
+ *   Note that though address space is reserved for 16 commands, fewer
+ *   might be present. See ncpt (num cmds per TCS).
+ *
+ * Here's a picture:
