This patch introduces support for firmware-stop-support. If Kernel does
not know about stop version, it can fallback to opal for idle stop
support if firmware-stop-supported property is present.
Just like "idle-stop", "idle-stop-quirk" can be defined in features if
there is some quirk that needs to be handled and if kernel identifies
the corresponding version it can use that or fallback to opal for idle
stop support.
The complete idea was previosuly posted in this patch:
