+  The firmware running on the processor inside the RPM subsystem allows each
+  component in the system to vote for state of the system resources, such as
+  clocks, regulators and bus frequencies. It implements multiple separate
+  communication interfaces that are described in subnodes, e.g. SMD and MPM:

+  The services provided by the firmware are only available after the firmware
+  has been loaded and the processor has been released from reset. Usually this
+  happens early in the boot process before the operating system is started.
