[PATCH 01/12] ACPI: Add has_unmet_acpi_deps() helper function

[Hans de Goede]

The clk and regulator frameworks expect clk/regulator consumer-devices
to have info about the consumed clks/regulators described in the device's
fw_node.

To work around cases where this info is not present in the firmware tables,
which is often the case on x86/ACPI devices, both frameworks allow the
provider-driver to attach info about consumers to the clks/regulators
when registering these.

This causes problems with the probe ordering wrt drivers for consumers
of these clks/regulators. Since the lookups are only registered when the
provider-driver binds, trying to get these clks/regulators before then
results in a -ENOENT error for clks and a dummy regulator for regulators.

ACPI-devices may have dependencies at the ACPI level (_DEP method), these
are tracked by the ACPI core, but ACPI devices will be instantiated during
boot even if they have unmet ACPI-dependencies because the _DEPs may never
get fully resolved (under Linux).

These ACPI-dependencies may be useful to solve the probe ordeing, for
example on laptops which use MIPI camera sensors connected to an Intel IPU3
for there cameras, a TI TPS68470 PMIC may be used to provide a clk +
regulators for the sensors. This TPS68470 PMIC is described using an
ACPI-device with a HID of INT3472 and the sensors have a _DEP pointing to
the INT3472 device which describes their PMIC.

The sensor drivers can use the ACPI core dependency tracking to delay
binding (return -EPROBE_DEFER) until the Linux INT3472 driver has bound
and registered the clks + regulator including lookup info, thus solving
the probe ordering issue.

Add a has_unmet_acpi_deps() which drivers can use to check if all
dependencies requested enumerated by the _DEP method have been met.

Note this relies on all drivers for devices listed in _DEP (for a
device which driver uses has_unmet_acpi_deps()) to call
acpi_dev_clear_dependencies() at the end of their probe() function.
