[PATCH v8 0/2] Introduce GENI SE Controller Driver

[Karthikeyan Ramasubramanian]

Generic Interface (GENI) firmware based Qualcomm Universal Peripheral (QUP)
Wrapper is a next generation programmable module for supporting a wide
range of serial interfaces like UART, SPI, I2C, I3C, etc. A single QUP
module can provide upto 8 Serial Interfaces using its internal Serial
Engines (SE). The protocol supported by each interface is determined by
the firmware loaded to the Serial Engine.

This patch series introduces GENI SE Driver to manage the GENI based QUP
Wrapper and the common aspects of all SEs inside the QUP Wrapper. This
patch series also introduces the UART and I2C Controller drivers to
drive the SEs that are programmed with the respective protocols.

[v8]
 * Handle the error from i2c_add_adapter function
 * Drop the device tree patches that are uploaded as part of commit:
   [v2,1/2] arm64: dts: qcom: sdm845: Add I2C, SPI, and UART9 nodes

[v7]
 * Return appropriate error codes as idenitified in i2c fault-codes
 * Add Maintainer details for I2C controller driver
 * Fix an incorrect conditional check in DMA mode

 * Remove driver references to pinctrl and their states
 * Replace magic numbers with appropriate macros
 * Update memory barrier usage and associated comments
 * Reduce interlacing of register reads/writes
 * Fix poll_get_char() operation in console UART driver under polling mode
 * Address other comments from Bjorn Andersson to improve code readability

[v2]
