[PATCH v2 00/48] Introduce core voltage scaling for NVIDIA Tegra20/30 SoCs

From: Dmitry Osipenko

Introduce core voltage scaling for NVIDIA Tegra20/30 SoCs, which reduces
power consumption and heating of the Tegra chips. Tegra SoC has multiple
hardware units which belong to a core power domain of the SoC and share
the core voltage. The voltage must be selected in accordance to a minimum
requirement of every core hardware unit.

The minimum core voltage requirement depends on:

1. Clock enable state of a hardware unit.
2. Clock frequency.
3. Unit's internal idling/active state.

This series is tested on Acer A500 (T20), AC100 (T20), Nexus 7 (T30),
Ouya (T30), TK1 (T124) and some others. I also added voltage scaling to
the Ventana (T20) and Cardhu (T30) boards which are tested by NVIDIA's CI
farm. Tegra30 is now couple degrees cooler on Nexus 7 and stays cool on
Ouya (instead of becoming burning hot) while system is idling. It should
be possible to improve this further by implementing a more advanced power
management features for the kernel drivers.

The DVFS support is opt-in for all boards, meaning that older DTBs will
continue to work like they did it before this series. It should be possible
to easily add the core voltage scaling support for Tegra114+ SoCs based on
this grounding work later on, if anyone will want to implement it.

Changelog:

v2: - Replaced Core voltage regulator with a Core power domain. The voltage
control is now done using GENPD API. This was suggested by Ulf Hansson.

- Added basic runtime PM and GENPD support to 2d, 3d, host1x and clk
drivers.

- Added new core-power-domain and clk-device drivers. Some high-freq
PLLs and clocks require a higher minimum core voltage and the new
clk-device driver manages the voltage for these clocks based on
the clock state.

- Moved voltage scaling entirely to the new clk-device driver for devices
which don't require advanced power management, like PWM for example.

- Added devm_tegra_core_dev_init_opp_table() common helper which sets up
OPP table for Tegra drivers.

- Added resource-managed version for OPP API functions, as it was
discussed previously in the comments to v1.

- Added new APIs, features and fixed various bugs related to voltage
scaling and power management done via GENPD API.
