Documentation: ABI: add sysfs interface for ZynqMP CSU registers
Document the new sysfs interface that exposes Configuration Security Unit (CSU) registers through the zynqmp-firmware driver. The interface is available under: /sys/devices/platform/firmware:zynqmp-firmware/csu_registers/ The CSU registers are discovered at boot time using the PM_QUERY_DATA firmware API. The following registers are currently supported: - multiboot (CSU_MULTI_BOOT) - idcode (CSU_IDCODE, read-only) - pcap-status (CSU_PCAP_STATUS, read-only) Read operations use the existing IOCTL_READ_REG firmware interface, while write operations use IOCTL_MASK_WRITE_REG. Access control is enforced by the firmware. Write attempts to read-only registers are rejected by firmware even though the sysfs file permissions allow writes. Document the ABI entry accordingly.

+Description:
+ Read/Write CSU (Configuration Security Unit) registers.
+
+ This interface provides dynamic access to CSU registers that are
+ discovered from the firmware at boot time using PM_QUERY_DATA API.
+
+ The supported registers are:
+
+ - multiboot: CSU_MULTI_BOOT register
+ - idcode: CSU_IDCODE register (read-only)
+ - pcap-status: CSU_PCAP_STATUS register (read-only)
+
+ Read operations use the existing IOCTL_READ_REG API.
+ Write operations use the existing IOCTL_MASK_WRITE_REG API.
+
+ The firmware enforces access control - read-only registers will reject
+ write attempts even though the sysfs permissions show write access.
+
+ Usage for reading::
+
+ # cat /sys/devices/platform/firmware\:zynqmp-firmware/csu_registers/multiboot
+ # cat /sys/devices/platform/firmware\:zynqmp-firmware/csu_registers/idcode
+
+ Usage for writing (mask and value are in hexadecimal)::
+
+ # echo 0xFFFFFFF 0x0 > /sys/devices/platform/firmware\:zynqmp-firmware/csu_registers/multiboot
