+ * In current design, if any peripheral was assigned to both A7 and M4,
+ * it will receive ipg_stop or ipg_wait when any of the 2 platforms enter
+ * low power mode. So M4 sleep will cause some peripherals fail to work
+ * at A7 core side. At default, all resources are in domain 0 - 3.
+ *
+ * There are 26 peripherals impacted by this IC issue:
+ * SIM2(sim2/emvsim2)
+ * SIM1(sim1/emvsim1)
+ * UART1/UART2/UART3/UART4/UART5/UART6/UART7
+ * SAI1/SAI2/SAI3
+ * WDOG1/WDOG2/WDOG3/WDOG4
+ * GPT1/GPT2/GPT3/GPT4
+ * PWM1/PWM2/PWM3/PWM4
+ * ENET1/ENET2
+ * Software Workaround:
+ * Here we setup some resources to domain 0 where M4 codes will move
+ * the M4 out of this domain. Then M4 is not able to access them any longer.
+ * This is a workaround for ic issue. So the peripherals are not shared
+ * by them. This way requires the uboot implemented the RDC driver and
+ * set the 26 IPs above to domain 0 only. M4 code will assign resource
+ * to its own domain, if it want to use the resource.
