[RFC v2 0/1] drm: lima: devfreq and cooling device support

[Martin Blumenstingl]

This is my attempt at adding devfreq (and cooling device) support to
the lima driver.

I am seeking comments in two general areas:
- regarding the integration into the existing lima code
- for the actual devfreq code (I had to adapt the panfrost code
  slightly, because lima uses a bus and a GPU/core clock)

My own TODO list includes "more" testing on various Amlogic SoCs.
So far I have tested this on Meson8b and Meson8m2 (which both have a
GPU OPP table defined). However, I still need to test this on a GXL
board (which is currently missing the GPU OPP table).

Test results from a Meson8m2 board:
TEST #1: glmark2-es2-drm --off-screen in an infinite loop while cycling
         through all available frequencies using the userspace governor

Changes since RFC v1 at [0]:
- added lock to protect the statistics as these can be written 
  concurrently for example when the GP and PP IRQ are firing at the
  same time. Thanks to Qiang Yu for the suggestion!
- updated the copyright notice of lima_devfreq.c to indicate that the
  code is derived from panfrost_devfreq.c. Thanks to  Chen-Yu Tsai  for
  the suggestion!
- I did not unify the code with panfrost yet because I don't know where
  to put the result. any suggestion is welcome though!
