[PATCH 1/6] clk: add CLK_RECALC_NEW_RATES clock flag for Exynos cpu clock support

[Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz]

This flag is needed to fix the issue with wrong dividers being setup
by Common Clock Framework when using the new Exynos cpu clock support.

The issue happens because clk_core_set_rate_nolock()  calls
clk_calc_new_rates(clk, rate) before both pre/post clock notifiers have
a chance to run.  In case of Exynos cpu clock support pre/post clock
notifiers are registered for mout_apll clock which is a parent of armclk
cpu clock and dividers are modified in both pre and post clock notifier.
This results in wrong dividers values being later programmed by
clk_change_rate(top).  To workaround the problem CLK_RECALC_NEW_RATES
flag is added and it is set for mout_apll clock later so the correct
divider values are re-calculated after both pre and post clock notifiers
had run.

For example when using "performance" governor on Exynos4210 Origen board
the cpufreq-dt driver requests to change the frequency from 1000MHz to
1200MHz and after the change state of the relevant clocks is following:

Without use of CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE flag:

 fout_apll rate: 1200000000
         fout_apll_div_2 rate: 600000000
                 mout_clkout_cpu rate: 600000000
                         div_clkout_cpu rate: 600000000
                                 clkout_cpu rate: 600000000
         mout_apll rate: 1200000000
                 armclk rate: 1200000000
                 mout_hpm rate: 1200000000
                         div_copy rate: 300000000
                                 div_hpm rate: 300000000
                 mout_core rate: 1200000000
                         div_core rate: 1200000000
                                 div_core2 rate: 1200000000
                                         arm_clk_div_2 rate: 600000000
                                         div_corem0 rate: 300000000
                                         div_corem1 rate: 150000000
                                         div_periph rate: 300000000
                         div_atb rate: 300000000
                                 div_pclk_dbg rate: 150000000
                 sclk_apll rate: 1200000000
                         sclk_apll_div_2 rate: 600000000


With use of CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE flag:

 fout_apll rate: 1200000000
         fout_apll_div_2 rate: 600000000
                 mout_clkout_cpu rate: 600000000
                         div_clkout_cpu rate: 600000000
                                 clkout_cpu rate: 600000000
         mout_apll rate: 1200000000
                 armclk rate: 1200000000
                 mout_hpm rate: 1200000000
                         div_copy rate: 200000000
                                 div_hpm rate: 200000000
                 mout_core rate: 1200000000
                         div_core rate: 1200000000
                                 div_core2 rate: 1200000000
                                         arm_clk_div_2 rate: 600000000
                                         div_corem0 rate: 300000000
                                         div_corem1 rate: 150000000
                                         div_periph rate: 300000000
                         div_atb rate: 240000000
                                 div_pclk_dbg rate: 120000000
                 sclk_apll rate: 150000000
                         sclk_apll_div_2 rate: 75000000

Without this change cpufreq-dt driver showed ~10 mA larger energy
consumption when compared to cpufreq-exynos one when "performance"
cpufreq governor was used on Exynos4210 SoC based Origen board.

This issue was probably meant to be workarounded by use of
CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE and CLK_DIVIDER_READ_ONLY clock flags in
the original Exynos cpu clock patchset (in "[PATCH v12 6/6] clk:
samsung: remove unused clock aliases and update clock flags" patch)
but usage of these flags is not sufficient to fix the issue observed.
