[RFC 0/2] Add PM_QOS_MEMORY_BANDWIDTH class

[Tomeu Vizoso]

Hi,

I need a way for device drivers to register their needs of memory bandwidth so
the optimal frequency for the memory bus clock can be set.

Adding one more pm_qos class and a PM_QOS_SUM class type seems to accomplish
that neatly, so I'm asking for comments on these very simple patches.

The patch to drm/tegra isn't really functional because the EMC clock
implementation [0] hasn't been merged yet, and I'm not posting an
implementation of a notification listener because in my platform that would be
the EMC driver which is still under discussion as well.

This will be most useful once we have per-user clock constraints [1], so the
EMC driver can set one more floor frequency that together with the other
constraints would lead to the effective rate of the memory bus.

Thanks,

Tomeu
