Thanks for everyone who reviewed v6 patchset, here is v7 with
review comments addressed.

SLIMbus (Serial Low Power Interchip Media Bus) is a specification
developed by MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) alliance.
SLIMbus is a 2-wire implementation, which is used to communicate with
peripheral components like audio-codec.
SLIMbus uses Time-Division-Multiplexing to accommodate multiple data
channels, and control channel. Control channel has messages to do
device-enumeration, messages to send/receive control-data to/from
slimbus devices, messages for port/channel management, and messages to
do bandwidth allocation.
Framework is introduced to support multiple instances of the bus
(1 controller per bus), and multiple slave devices per controller.
SPI and I2C frameworks, and comments from last time when I submitted
the patches were referred-to while working on this framework.

These patchsets introduce device-management, OF helpers, and messaging
APIs, controller driver for Qualcomm's slimbus controller, and
clock-pause feature for entering/exiting low-power mode for SLIMbus.
Framework patches to do channel, port and bandwidth
management are work-in-progress and will be sent out once these
initial patches are accepted.

These patchsets were tested on Qualcomm Snapdragon processor board
using the controller driver, and a test slave device.

v6: https://lwn.net/Articles/735693/

Changes from v6 to v7:
* Various improvements in commenting style and kerneldoc
suggested by various reviewers.
* Removed usage of semaphores.
* Split patches into more reviewable sizes.
* Move buffer management into the controller driver.
* use IDR for TID transactions.
* use IDA for controller ids.
* Remove lot of redundant code.
* remove framer booted call for now, which can be added in future.
* Added slim_readb/writeb and slim_read/write apis for
simplified value element interface. Inspired by Soundwire patches.
* Added slim device state so the the drivers which are
probed after the device is announced, can get device state.
* Lots of code cleanup.
* move summary to .rst format.
* move from callbacks to completions for async reads.
* split slimbus.h into device and controller specific parts.
